Hanakagura
花菓蔵
Akan Lake Hot Springs, Hokkaido
阿寒湖温泉
A butter cookie very much the same as the Hokkaido omiyage standard-bearer Shiroi Koibito. This is the kind of dependable omiyage that goes well with a cup of coffee in the afternoon.

Tokyo (Ginza Colombin)
東京(銀座コロンバン)
With a color evening picture of the Tokyo skyline and no explanation on the package other than the English word "Coffee," this is generic omiyage at its best.

Yukishio chinsuko
Yukishio chinsuko
雪塩ちんすこう
Miyako-jima, Okinawa
沖縄宮古島
Roughly "Snow salt Okinawan sweet" in English, this traditional "chinsuko" sweet from Okinawa seems more buttery than salty. It's a small, dry, crumbly finger shaped cookie. Not bad?

Mura suzume
村すずめ、四国
Mura suzume, Shikoku
Verdict: Like a mini azuki crepe. Gotta eat it right away; none of this letting-it-sit-in-your-desk-for-three-months business.
