If you or a loved one are experiencing Wanderlust or have an unyielding curiosity for Eastern culture-inspired food that you cannot easily access from where you are living then Bokksu's Japanese snacks subscription box is definitely something you should look into. Ideal as a form of monthly indulgence or as a gift for a special occasion, the Classic Bokksu: Seasons of Japan is a good starting point.
The Japanese snacks subscription boxes are thoughtfully curated by "snack experts" who aim to bring a taste of Japan by highlighting flavors that correspond to the seasons. This particular kit has a bit of everything and is great as a starting point; individuals can certainly choose from a range of assortments.
The Classic Bokksu: Seasons of Japan include 22 authentic snacks and tea pairings, as well as a 'Culture Guide' that will contextualize (including description, cultural story, and allergens) each snack in the box.
