心をほっとさせてくれる、北海道のいいもの

The best things from Hokkaido that will soothe your soul

2020年 9月 25日

These items are made possible only in Hokkaido, with ingredients, aromas, and flavors nurtured by Hokkaido's great outdoors.
These items, which are full of the blessings of nature, have a comforting quality that soothes the mind and body.

A cute sable that will make you smile.

When you're busy and don't have much time, it's easy to get depressed or irritated by little things.
But it is precisely at times like these that I want to make snack time meaningful.
By the way, I think that not only do snacks have to be delicious, but their appearance is also very important!
So what I've been buying on repeat lately is Farm Designs' "Ushi Sable," which has a cute cow shape.
Another small detail is that each cow has a different pattern.
Farm Designs is actually a dairy farm that runs a ranch in Hama-naka Town, Hokkaido.
We provide our own food and create a stress-free environment.
The "Ushi Sable" cookies are made from the perspective of dairy farmers, and the patterns and shapes of the cookies capture the characteristics of cows.
You'll want to take photos, even with milk.
Of course, the taste is great too. The subtle sweetness of the milk is a favorite of both children and adults.
This is a great item to have as a snack for yourself, or as a small gift.

I want to carry it around like a talisman.

If I feel like my throat is a little sore, I immediately pop some herb candy from Koyu Seikatsu in Kitami into my mouth.
Especially now that we have more opportunities to wear masks, in order to reduce the discomfort of wearing a mask,
I've been licking this candy a lot lately. Koyu Life grows organic herbs and vegetables 100% from Hokkaido using natural cultivation methods.
Our herbal candies are made from finely powdered Okhotsk chamomile, echinacea, and rosemary that are carefully grown on our own farm, making them the perfect item for when you want to feel refreshed.
The refreshing taste of herbs and the gentle sweetness of oligosaccharides made from sugar beets grown in Hokkaido,
Even those who don't like throat lozenges will find these delicious.
The candies are so clear, like jewels, that just looking at them is soothing.
This is a candy that you'll want to put a few in your pouch and carry around like a talisman.

Using mist lotion is my daily routine every morning.

On busy mornings, you don't want to waste time getting ready!
Most days, my skin care routine consisted of just applying lotion and then being done!
However, as I got older, I started to think, "Isn't this a little dangerous for my skin?"
I was struggling to find a new lotion. Of course I wanted something with moisturizing effects, but
I also want to prioritize the ease of being able to quickly care for my skin in the morning.
The product that fulfilled this wish was the mist lotion "Snow and Birch" from Natural Island, a company that produces domestic skin care products that focus on ingredients from Hokkaido.
Instead of water, which is the main ingredient in lotions, we use rare birch sap that can only be harvested for two weeks in early spring in Bifuka Town, Hokkaido.
By combining the birch sap with hyaluronic acid and collagen,
The moment you spray it, the beauty ingredients penetrate the skin and a veil of moisture envelops it.
The fine mist is attractive because it is easy to use and moisturizes your face just by spraying it on.
The feeling of the moisturizing mist enveloping your skin is just so pleasant.
Morning skin care has now become an essential part of having a comfortable day for me.
