We were particular about using
domestically produced technology. [Holo apple jam (RED)] Inspired by Hoguchi’s red eyes, we chose a precious apple called Geneva, whose flesh is bright red. The old apple variety “Zieneva” was developed around 1930 in Canada as an ornamental apple.It has a strong sour taste and is not suitable for eating as it is, but its bright red flesh instantly attracts people’s attention and makes them want to try it at least once. A fascinating apple. Its charming and attractive yet quirky features are perfect for Holo’s image.

Finished with a sparkling golden apple jam. “Bramley” is a so-called wild variety that came to fruition in England about 200 years ago due to a combination of circumstances. There is log wood in the UK, but at one time it was feared that it would disappear, but with the support of local people it has been revived. This image is reflected in the young peddler Lawrence, who overcomes various trials during his peddling journey and moves forward.

Prefecture, where “Sour Apple Specialty Store” is located, there is a workshop where craftsmen finish each decorative box called “Nashibako” one by one. For this project, in addition to our store’s policy of “using local ingredients as much as possible,” we also wanted to utilize domestic craftsmanship when ordering original items (miscellaneous goods). I arrived at the workshop. Although the main box and foil stamping are made by machine, the final finishing touches are done by hand by craftsmen. You will be able to use this pasted box for a long time.
