Can somebody help me read this Japanese label please?


My friend bought me a box of fresh grape mochi from Japan as a souvenir. The grape inside the soft pillowy mochi was giant and juicy and tasted divine!

I really want to know what brand they are so I can buy them again when I next visit.

Can someone who can read Japanese help me determine where they are from by reading this label that came inside the box?

Thank you so much!

  1. It appears to just be a poetic description of the product, at least according to Google lens translation:

    Seasonal Josuian’s

    Grape size

    bathed in the summer sun.

    Pione, the king of seedless

    grapes, has grown to bursting. Refreshing sweet and sour taste between the skin and the fruit.

    Whole soft rice cake

    Wrapped up.

    “In rare cases, there may be seeds. After all, it is a product of nature.

    Please forgive me.

  2. [This looks like the brand site](https://corp.josuian.jp/products/seasonal/budoudaifuku/)

    It’s an seasonal item only available mid July-early October and the stores seem to be primarily in Fukuoka prefecture with [this as the main store](https://goo.gl/maps/it7S6QDcBPsRZxUH6)

    That doesn’t mean they won’t sell it in Tokyo (they may have pop ups or a temporary counter in a department store) but it may be hard to find easily unless you go to Fukuoka in the summer/early Fall

  3. Google Lens is pretty good. I am surprised people don’t use it more often.

  4. While google gives you an idea, the translations are terrible.

    Pione are the king of seedless grapes, grown bathing in the summer sun until they are about to burst.
    It is a sweet and sour flavour wrapped in soft mochi.
    The peels are packed with deliciousness and minerals.
    Please chill it and eat the whole thing at once.

    *There are cases where there might be seeds.
    No matter what, it’s a natural fruit.
    *When eating, there are cases where juice squirts out. Please be careful.
