Japanese tradition says that tea harvested on the 88th day of spring – a day known as Hachijyu-hachiya – is not only the most delicious but also a source of good luck.
This organic tea is picked on that date and pairs a bright, youthful taste with a fresh springtime aroma.
Made from 100% cotton, the Haikara Little Handkerchief features a smooth, brightly colored front and a soft, loose-weave pile backing designed to quickly absorb moisture.
A washable, eco-friendly alternative to paper tissues, this everyday staple can be used year-round to stay comfortable on warm days or clean sensitive noses during allergy season.
The Haikara Handkerchief proves especially handy when dealing with little ones' daily messes and conveniently fits into even the smallest pockets.
The first black tea to join our private label, Hayashi Organic Black Tea brings an entirely new taste to the Morihata family, one that starts smooth and mellow then finishes with a touch of black tea’s distinctive astringency.
Enjoy a new experience with this highly approachable Japanese black tea.

Hirali Kitchen Towels can soak up incredible amounts of water thanks to the high-quality cotton fabric from which they're made, and they dry exceptionally fast. With use, a Hirali Kitchen Towel will also grow quite soft to the touch, pampering the hands while tackling the toughest jobs.

The Kizara Project utilizes excess wood from sustainable, human-grown Japanese red pine to create their one-of-a-kind stationery. The group's eco-conscious process sources trees from local woodlands that are thinned as part of healthy forestry practices.
By creating a wood product from a constantly renewed resource, Kizara supports the growth of both a national industry and the trees on which that industry - and the world at large - depends, demonstrating how conscious design can have a positive impact on our environment.

Gentle on the skin and kind to the environment, Kontex towels are crafted in Imabari using centuries-old techniques, as they have been since the company’s founding in 1934.
Each towel is made from fine, garment-quality thread gently woven on traditional low-speed looms to achieve unparalleled softness, then washed in snowmelt from the slopes of Mt. Ishizuchi.
The end result is a towel that’s incredibly absorbent, surprisingly compact, and free from impurities - an ideal addition to any kitchen or bathroom.
