Kojimaya's Award-Winning Unsalted Roasted Mixed Nuts
Kojimaya, a renowned specialty wholesaler with a 68-year history based in Tokyo's Ueno Ameya Yokocho, has garnered international recognition for its flagship product, the "Unsalted Roasted Classic Four-Nut Mix". This exceptional product has just received the prestigious Nominee Award at the 2025 Monde Selection, a global quality evaluation institution that honors outstanding food and beverages.
The Heart of a Classic Mix
The Unsalted Roasted Classic Nut Mix showcases a perfect blend of tastiness and crunch. Made up of four essential types of nuts, this product reflects the rich diversity and flavor profiles of each component:
1.
Almonds provide a delightful roasted aroma.
2.
Cashews contribute a buttery richness.
3.
Macadamia Nuts add a hint of sweetness.
4.
Walnuts offer a slight bitterness and depth.
With these carefully selected ingredients, the mix is not just about individual flavors but an exquisite balance that delivers an unforgettable taste experience. As one of their top sellers, with over 8.5 million bags sold since its launch, this product has won the hearts of many customers, including those at upscale hotels and bars, who appreciate the artisan-crafted quality of these nuts.
Enhancing Flavor and Health Benefits
In 2024, the mix saw a dedicated improvement with the introduction of roasted walnuts. This change not only enhanced the nutty aroma, but it also increased the polyphenol content, fortifying its antioxidant attributes. Following this renovation, favorable customer responses encouraged Kojimaya to submit the product to the Monde Selection, culminating in its prestigious recognition.
Sourcing Quality Ingredients
Kojimaya's commitment to quality extends into sourcing. The owner personally inspects farms, prioritizing the procurement of superior raw materials while ensuring visibility into the origin of their products. Each type of nut undergoes individual roasting to perfect its unique flavor, and is then expertly blended into the final mix, ensuring a superior taste experience.
A Commitment to Excellence
Looking ahead, Kojimaya is dedicated to continuing its pursuit of the inherent deliciousness found in nuts and dried fruits. Through artisanal craftsmanship and sincere production practices, they aim to deliver the true flavors of their high-quality ingredients to an even wider audience. This latest award serves as a catalyst for ongoing improvements in quality and product innovation.
