This product is Japanese Nama Yatsuhashi, a fresh food item with a best-before period (period of optimal flavor) of up to 14 days from the date of manufacture. We arrange procurement only after receiving your order, followed by packing and delivery. Please note that orders for Nama Yatsuhashi are generally shipped 4–5 days later than regular items. As a result, it is normal for the remaining best-before period to be 1–3 days when the product arrives at your place. Kindly note that the "best-before date" marked on Japanese food products is different from the expiration date. Passing the best-before date only means the flavor and texture may change slightly; it does not mean the product has spoiled or is unsafe to eat. If you are concerned about this, please refrain from making a purchase.
