Review: Unboxing Japan Crate Mystery Box - July Edition!
Yes, it's finally the time of the month again — we get the opportunity to unbox this month's Japan Crate's mystery box!
If you do not know what Japan Crate is, they are a Tokyo-based online monthly subscription service company. They aim to deliver the experience of Japan to you through these monthly boxes, also known as crates to your doorstep. You may find exclusive snacks and candies hand-picked by them and even a custom booklet that shares descriptions, instructions for the Do It Yourself (DIY) candy, monthly contests, and a custom in-house manga.
For the month of July, they have collaborated with Project Diva Mega Mix+, a premier rhythm game featuring the iconic Hatsune Miku- a world-famous virtual singer! The items in the mystery box are inspired by this blue-haired diva, her tunes, outfits, and other virtual singer friends.
Read on to find out what I think of the exclusive snacks and candies from the box!
Yogurt Lozenges
This pack of yogurt lozenges candy is so delicious! It has a sweet and pleasant yogurt flavouring- so refreshing too. Besides, it contains herbal extracts and lactic acid that help to soothe the throat.
Rating: 8/10
Ginza Rusk White Milk
These small biscuit chucks, also known as rusks in Japan, are so toothsome and crunchy! Each biscuit chuck is dipped in white chocolate and coated with Hokkaido milk powder. Sweet but not too overwhelming.

Cherry Gummies
This gummy is so intensely delicious and addictive! The moment I bite into this soft candy, it gives a delightful burst of cherry flavour.
