Just recently discovered. Such a pleasant surprise since I just moved to this part of the neighborhood. Customer service was top notch, super friendly and informative. The products are so well thought out. I ended up getting a few of the incense sticks and matches. All smell very good. Super excited to try them.

Oh My Goodness! I am I'm love with this store. The Japanese incense are smokeless, and smell wonderful. They have a great selection, and the person who works there is super-friendly, and knows a great deal about the products that are sold. I love the teacup sets and everything about this treasure of a store.
