A Serene Experience Awaits at Yoku Moku Aoyama
From May 14 to June 11, 2023, the Yoku Moku flagship store, located in Aoyama, will host an exclusive promotion in collaboration with the traditional Omiya Bonsai. This initiative not only celebrates the 100th anniversary of the Omiya Bonsai village but also promises a unique experience that intertwines elegant confections with the calming aesthetics of bonsai plants.
Visitors to Yoku Moku Aoyama can expect a range of enchanting bonsai displays, featuring more than 20 pieces that vary from charming mini variations to more substantial specimens. The showcase promises to provide a delightful backdrop for patrons, offering peaceful visuals alongside seasonal sweets that are sure to please any palate.
Special Offerings
As part of the collaboration, customers will receive limited-edition coasters while enjoying their time at the store. These coasters serve a dual purpose: not only do they provide a stylish surface for beverages, but they also offer visitors a discount on admission at the Omiya Bonsai Museum if presented during their visit.
The promotional period coincides with the rich history of the Omiya Bonsai village, which began in 1925, following the Great Kanto Earthquake. Artists displaced by damage sought out the fertile soils of Omiya, establishing a locale that has since developed into a revered hub for bonsai cultivation. The upcoming centennial in 2025 marks a significant milestone, reinforcing Omiya Bonsai's reputation as the epitome of bonsai craftsmanship recognized worldwide.
