Japan's RE-MENT toy company, known for creating exquisite accessories and miniature models, announced several new products yesterday (6th) that will be released in February 2024. This article will bring you product information for the "Welcome to the World of Tea: Kyoto Uji Tea Ito Kyuemon" blind box series.
Ito Kyuemon is an old Uji tea specialty shop founded in Kyoto in the Edo period, Tenpo 3 (1832 AD). In addition to selling exquisite and beautiful Uji matcha desserts and Uji tea souvenirs, their original desserts and parfaits, which satisfy both visually and gastronomically, are also a major highlight. This collaboration with RE-MENT aims to miniaturize their popular in-store products! From the vibrant colors and tableware like plates and trays, to the texture depiction of parfaits, shaved ice, and cakes, everything is excellent! What's even better is that if you purchase a complete box, you can not only assemble a rich lineup of products but also build a shop scene complete with a noren (door curtain). Afterwards, you can take your favorite dessert models with you for photos during your afternoon tea outings.
