Gifts That Carry Feelings

Hello everyone, this is Keko from our online team.

At our store, many customers choose our products as gifts.
Not only for seasonal greetings like mid-year or year-end exchanges,
but also for birthdays, to say thank you, to celebrate recovery,
or simply to show a small gesture of care.

No matter the occasion, there is one thing all these gifts have in common:
a heartfelt wish to convey feelings.

Among the messages we receive from customers, there are words like:

"I can’t visit in person, so I wanted to send my feelings instead."
"I thought this tea would make the recipient feel at ease."
"At the change of seasons, I make it a tradition to send this gift every year."

Reading these messages reminds us that a gift is like a letter you can hold in your hands.

That is why we believe it’s not only about what you choose to give,
but also how it is wrapped, and the words you choose to accompany it.
Every order, we feel, carries its own story —
about a family member, a friend, a moment at work, or a special day.

We may not see these stories directly, but they are always there.
Our wish is to quietly stand beside each “reason for giving,”
and to deliver it with the same care the sender feels.

At Nakamura Tokichi Honten, our tea and sweets are not only meant to be delicious,
but also to serve as gentle bridges — carrying thoughts from one person to another.

Inside a single gift, there are countless feelings.
We want to honor them by continuing our careful craftsmanship
and by preserving a quiet, sincere spirit in all that we do.
