We recently received a beautifully curated care package from Japan! Kokoro Care’s limited-edition Cherry Blossom Box features an array of delightful snacks, tea, condiments, and ingredients perfect for enjoying a picnic during “Hanami,” the cherry blossom viewing season. Each item is hand-crafted by regional farmers and producers across Japan, thoughtfully selected by our friends at Kokoro Care.
This gift box is part of the Journey through the tastes of Japan, available through the Kokoro Care Seasonal Tastes package. You can choose to subscribe for a box every three months or purchase one-time. While we do receive a small commission from sales, we genuinely appreciate the quality of the products and the craftsmanship that goes into each box.
Unboxing the package was a delightful experience! It brought back memories of the care packages our mothers used to send us from Japan when we moved to the United States decades ago. Those boxes were always filled with treats and food items that were hard to find locally, each selected with love. Check out our unboxing video below! The audio is in Japanese, but you can sense our excitement! 😊😊

Yuko’s favorite treat is the Sakura Peanuts, while Noriko loves the Soba Karinto with brown sugar. Both sweets are new to us, but they are incredibly delicious! The Sakura Peanuts have a subtle cherry blossom flavor, reminiscent of traditional Japanese confections like Sakura Mochi. The Soba Karinto is crunchy and lightly sweetened with brown sugar, making it a perfect snack with green tea or coffee.
If you’re eager to experience authentic Japanese treats made and shipped directly from Japan, or if you long for the flavors of regional Japanese cuisine, this package is perfect for you. It also makes a wonderful gift for someone special. Be sure to order your box today!
