Introduction

Sailor’s Manyo Ink collection, inspired by Japans oldest poetry anthology, “Manyoshu,” takes you on a journey through the food culture of the Heian period. The theme of this limited edition highlights the foods described in the Manyoshu, allowing you to discover the culinary traditions of both the commoners and aristocracy.

Among the five unique colors, Kaki (Persimmon) shines with a warm orange hue that evokes the sweetness of persimmons.
