These Cinnabon Japan cinnamon buns are a new series of menu items arriving exclusively in Japan to provide patrons with a regional flavor experience that's perfect for snacking or a dessert. The Wa Gokoro cinnamon rolls include the Uji Matcha Nama Choco Bon that features the Mini Chocolate Bon as the base alongside the Kuromistu Kinako Bon, which uses the Classic Minibon for the base with kuromitsu cream cheese frosting for a black honey taste. Both the buns incorporate distinct flavors that incorporate familiar tastes sourced from Japanese cuisine, which will no doubt appeal to both locals as well as travelers.

The new Cinnabon Japan cinnamon buns are arriving at participating locations starting on August 24, 2023 and are expected to pack decadent flavor in a small serving.
