 Thanks for checking out this unboxing video. So this is the unboxing for the June Snaku box Snacks from Japan as you could probably assume based off the name so Disclaimer on this. I'm not huge on matcha and this is a matcha themed box for the month So typically I've been really into snack who with their themes have been really cool But for me personally not big in a matcha And for people who don't know matcha is kind of like a powdered green tea in a sense Which I find it typically makes it like even more vegetal than just like having green tea So I'm just not huge on it, but that said I might be surprised by some things. I don't know we'll find out so snack who box Always looks the same on the outside and then they do some things different on the inside So it's a nice packaging And I already went into it because I like to check it just ahead of time Just to make sure that I can kind of like try to prioritize what I do first and last and all that And it's definitely a good thing that I did it this time and you'll see why so I open it up You can see A bunch of stuff and move this so you can see the other ones So it looks like there are some repeats in here that I've had in other boxes I'll still go through and taste them for people who are seeing this for the first time But I'll let you know if I believe it's one that I've had before So they always have a really nice kind of spoiler Card I'll go ahead and just show you this right now if you want to Pause on it and read all this stuff. You can do that or you can wait as I go through So I'm gonna get the weirdest thing out of Out of the way first And I really expect I'm not gonna like this, but you know fingers crossed. Maybe I will we'll see so It came in this and this is why I was saying it was a good thing that I opened The box ahead of time So this had a powder in it and this is a macha latte is what it is and you can do it hot or cold I went ahead and pre-made it cold because I'm not big on hot drinks plus if I'm gonna do this video I don't want to like burn my mouth, you know So I'm doing it cold. It's a macha latte. It says. Oh man. This first word. I'm probably gonna butcher pretty bad So apologies It took human it took human is a famous tea shop from Kyoto that has been producing premium green tea since 1952 They uphold tradition by hand-picking all their tea leaves and stone grinding their matcha This packet of matcha is lightly sweetened and it's perfect either hot or cold So like I said hot or cold shouldn't be fine and this is what this thing looks like I just put it in mixed it up with some water. You see it's got like a I don't want to like spill anything, but you can kind of see actually I can just tip this There's like a frothy head To it Yeah, but this That's a flight too much. Let's check that out It looks like a protein shake With like spinach or something in it. It smells like straight-up matcha Actually, let me adjust this a little bit there. Sorry. Yeah, it smells like straight-up matcha. This is a very vegetal type smell Green tea definitely smells like green tea leaves. I don't want to try this And when they say latte, there's no coffee. It's just matcha Okay, so that's just their idea of it's kind of like a latte Yeah, it's actually not that bad with a little bit of sweetening that they have in there I think that kind of neutralizes the bitter bite and Vegetal taste of the matcha. So it's just very very subtle. I actually don't dislike this It's actually pretty decent Maybe it has to do with the amount of water I put in there to kind of water it down enough for my taste, but It's actually not bad. It's kind of pleasant. I have my wife try that later and see what she thinks of it I better go ahead and Cleanse my palate. All right So let's get into these other things Go down the line so after the matcha latte, I'm just gonna hit all these matcha related things first So the first thing we have after that is a matcha waffle. This is what they're calling it interesting looking a Matcha waffle and it says twice baked matcha infused waffles filled with a lightly sweetened matcha cream Morihan has been making these snacks since 1836 Who knew man? That's a long time to be in operation. Okay You need okay, they have a little tear on the side Man that helps me out a lot Okay, so it's more of like a hard Waffle. Yeah, it feels like it's gonna be kind of crispy It's not soft at all or anything It's hard to see but you can kind of see the cream. I'll bite it so you can like really see the cream in there Smells sweet. I'm gonna make a mouth. It's definitely very crumbly It's really hard Add a little taste of that matcha. Oh, actually it's just coming apart Let's put that over here and I'll show you So you can I got a computer board the keyboard. Yeah, you can see all the that cream in there Hmm, I like how crunchy the waffle is That's really nice and it's actually relatively sweet To counteract that kind of vegetable bitterness from the matcha So once again, just like the drink the matcha flavor is pretty rained in It's just like kind of like an accent on the end of each taste Not gonna eat anymore because I'll finish it later so I can get moving but I Should kind of like that That's not bad at all. It's not something I go out of my way to get But since I have it I will eat it So that's good All right, and then the last I think it's this and I got two of these Hojicha sable This is the last I believe of the matcha things Regional cookies made with locally produced roasted hojicha tea from Sayama Okay In the picture it looks like it's like a brownish greenish cookie kind of looks like ginger snap actually See just kind of looks like brown like a ginger snap Yeah, there's like a you probably can't see it on there, but there is like a slight greenish tinge to it it tastes It's very good It tastes like a darker version of like a butter cookie You know, it's like maybe a little bit of like a molasses Flavor to it decent amount of sweetness. I do get pick up on a little bit of the matcha But again like the last two things. It was pretty rained in Plasm, this would be good with like coffee or tea or something like that. Just a nice little sweet something It's not bad. Oh my cats in here checking things out Don't need any of it Not allowed. Okay, so I don't know there is a little bit more matcha stuff I think one more and it's this thing a Zuki matcha. I thought that was the last one was it a Zuki matcha Sweet a Zuki red beans from Hokkaido covered with matcha green tea chocolate made in Kyoto By the way, I like these packaging, you know, like See and then you can still keep things in there We don't have that in the US and if we do I haven't seen it So basically it's just like green like matcha green tea covered red beans All right, if you can see Red beans are a little like fig like in my opinion with the way they taste This Kind of comes off taste a little like red bean like figgy-ness with like sugar added a Little bit of the matcha and like white chocolate. It's kind of how it tastes to me It's not bad, but I'm not really a fan of it either. So Hmm, I don't really need more of that I might eat it though because the beans have protein, which is good All right The next thing so this is something we got before In a in I think maybe even just the last snack in May But their chips and these are Osatsu potato enjoy these regional Kagoshima chips made with organically grown sweet potatoes from the rich volcanic soil of Kagoshima. I Wasn't a huge fan of these when we originally had them I thought they're okay for what they're supposed to be my wife quite liked them though because she's a sweet potato fan I'm just not sweet potato fan. So there you go. It's like a kettle style sweet potato chip I'm good taste black It's not all that salty or anything So like I don't even know if there's salt added to it at all Which I'm assuming the reason for that would be so you can taste the natural sweetness of the sweet potato Which honestly if you're a big fan of sweet potatoes, those are probably really awesome I'm just not a big fan sweet potatoes. So it's not really for me But my wife won't do it and get that flavor on my mouth Okay, that's an extra one of those That's an extra one of those Is this okay, so this must be the next one. This is Millie biscuits Just looks like kind of a little bit like Ritz crackers Sorry for the glare on that. It's just That's what happens. Okay, so the Millie biscuit Simply yet delicious lightly sweet and Japanese biscuits topped with a bit of sea salt from the Sea of Japan Sounds good. Sounds like it can definitely be up my alley. I like things that are kind of like savory salty. All right Yeah, it's kind of look like like little Ritz crackers, see Yeah, you can't really smell much. Oh Oh a lot harder than I thought they would be Yeah, outside really hard They do they have a bit of a butteriness to them a decent amount of salt, which I like I like the salt level a Little bit of butteriness with that salt and then there's a bit of a sweetness in there So it's kind of like a harder smaller Ritz cracker with some sweetness added I don't think I like how hard they are. You know, they're a little bit softer But It tastes pretty good. I'm down with it. No problem there Hmm That's pretty good. I enjoy those with my lunch because I'm shooting this around lunchtime. Yeah, it's just like a nice cracker Okay, and then the last thing is Maru maru Ramune or Ramune So this has to do with that drink I've never actually had it like a real popular like soda type drink from Japan called Ramune or Ramune Or I don't know how to say it. I'm sorry so This candy is flavored with Ramune one of Japan's most popular soft drinks during summer You see Japanese children everywhere drinking this fizzy drink. So there's four different flavors, and I have one of each I'll put this down, but I'll show you So I got the pink one, which I don't know what that flavor would end up being Got the blue one, which I don't know what that flavor would end up being But a lot of places would just be like the flavor is blue, which is not a flavor got the green one and The yellow one which when it's yellow, I automatically assume lemon So I'm gonna do the blue one just because I'm very curious what this flavor is I'm not gonna do all the other ones because they're all gonna be about the same So it's like a powder on the outside. I don't know if you guys can really see that like it's a little bit powdery there No, this looks white in that light, but it's blue. Oh It smells Effervescent, you know how you get like those fizz candies kind of smells like one of those like sweet fizz candies Which my cat yells in the background Yep Okay So it seems texturally like there's not gonna be a whole lot in the center I was thinking maybe it was like that kind of powder stuff on the outside And then inside it would be like a hard candy But it kind of feels in my mouth like the it's the entirety of it is that powder Which kind of gives it a little bit of like a fizzy quality flavor Not sure what that flavor is. Maybe it's like a blue raspberry is what's supposed to be but I'm a bite it. Yep You know that Well, that's a drop some But yeah Because it's that powder I kind of like dissolves and gives us kind of like fizzy effect So it comes off kind of like a soft drink Really sweet a Hit of like tart fruit in there, which I'm assuming is a blue raspberry Good, I mean for what it's supposed to be. It's not bad at all I think I prefer it more if it was like a hard candy in the middle But you can kind of suck on a little bit after you get rid of the stuff on the outside But pretty solid. All right, so overall it was pretty good Actually exceeded my expectations as far as the matcha stuff went because it really was rained in I've got super sweet thing. I need to drink some of this Now without how sweet that candy was it makes this taste a little more vegetable and bitter But so not bad. Yeah, pretty happy with that. Actually, um Very interested to see what my wife is gonna think of all these Like like usual It's just a lot of fun to just kind of experience new snacks And this is kind of me stepping outside of my comfort zone in the sense that I would never like go to a store and be like Oh, I'll get this matcha thing. I'll get this matcha thing So it's nice to have something like this where the box just kind of forces you to try it because then you're like Oh, that's actually not that bad. I can eat that So cool snack who doing a good job always look forward to what's next So I don't know what the theme is gonna be yet for July But always excited to find out what the theme is. I'm hoping for a box at some point That's like really really up my alley and is mainly just savory stuff. Like I'm not huge on sweet I'm cool with it in small amounts, which is why this tasting box by snack who is good for me Because if I get something sweet, there's not a whole lot of it So I can just like have a little bit and it's good But I really like savory stuff. So I'm hoping hoping for some savory themes But anyway, thank you everyone for checking this out.
