Weekly fresh from Japan
In addition to our own fresh produce grown in the Netherlands, we import a carefully selected assortment of fresh products directly from Japan. Not everything can be grown locally or year-round here, and some products are particularly special precisely because of their Japanese origin. With our weekly fresh imports, we bring a wider selection of authentic and unique Japanese ingredients of exceptional quality closer to you.
Think of typical Japanese vegetables, herbs, and garnishes such as kinome (sansho), shiso, hanaho (perilla), and shiitake. We also import exceptional Japanese luxury fruits, such as strawberries, melons, mangoes, and grapes. In Japan, the cultivation of premium fruit is refined down to the finest detail: from care and selection to the moment of harvest. The fruit is selected when fully ripe, precisely to allow its flavor, sweetness, aroma, and texture to shine.
We supply some products fresh from our own inventory; other products are available weekly via pre-order. Our fresh imports from Japan are carefully transported to the Netherlands as quickly as possible and shipped to the customer. Premium fruit is already ripe for eating upon receipt: as a result, a ripe grape, for example, may have already fallen off the stem by the time it arrives; this is not a sign of inferior quality, but may actually be due to its advanced ripeness—which is when the flavor is at its peak. Refrigerate briefly upon arrival and enjoy it as soon as possible. It has been selected to be eaten at its very best immediately, not to ripen further or be stored at home for an extended period.
