[60] Taimei Kon-ichi (5-pack)

This nori is harvested at the mouth of the Kikuchi River in Kumamoto Prefecture, whose pristine headwaters are recognized among Japan’s finest. We’ve been fortunate to obtain a rare “Kon” (green mixed grade) nori—one of the most coveted varieties.
The vibrant green nori delivers a bold, distinctive flavor with a crisp, snappy texture that makes an immediate impression. This year’s harvest is especially notable for its delicate mouthfeel and rich umami, with a pleasantly bitter aftertaste that lingers on the palate—truly addictive. Aomaze nori from this season offers a one-of-a-kind expression that can only be enjoyed this year.
We hope you’ll savor the unique taste of this exceptional green blend.
