This month, Sakuraco is launching the “Heart of Ishikawa” box, celebrating the Noto Peninsula and Wajima in Ishikawa Prefecture. These regions, known for their artisanal traditions, were hit hard by an earthquake earlier this year. This box supports their recovery efforts.
Each snack tells a story of resilience, like Iwazumi’s Noto Sweet Potato, back after a three-month pause, and Yokoi Shoten’s Kaga Shizuku Rice Candy, crafted using a 120-year-old kettle. With other local treats like Eisendo’s White Sesame Senbei, this box offers a true taste of Ishikawa.
Using code “ARTISAN”, with a prepaid plan, you will receive free authentic lacquerware crafted by Ishikawa artisans such as a fork set with a mini plate or a Miso soup bowl (varies by subscription length).
Support Ishikawa’s artisans by enjoying Sakuraco’s latest box.
