Re: cory Lum (bonjiri) chadogu
interesting & tasty okashi (japanese sweets)
its called 'seiko', not like the watch company. its made with renkon (lotus root flour) and 'wasanbon' like a brown sugar.
its translucent and has a silky, sweet, caramel-like flavor. delicious and balanced with matcha.

Re: cory Lum (bonjiri) chadogu
Cory,
Nice find! I've never seen one of those in Japan. Looks like a good one.
I have bought great torches there... have two of their heads here in the USA sitting in my studio. But I unfortunately can't find propane cylinders that match the threading of the Japanese connections in the USA.
And the airlines would probably frown on propane cylinders stuffed into my luggage.
best,
