Kabayaki Ink

KABAYAKI Ink

BUNGUBOX was born in Hamamatsu.

A town known for musical instruments, mandarin oranges, and... delicious eels!

In 2012, we produced two inks to commemorate our local city of Hamamatsu.

Mikan (Mandarin Orange) and this ink, inspired by

the dark brown Kabayaki sauce used to give grilled eel that irresistible taste.

As a high source of protein, eel is considered a summer delicacy to get through the hot humid days.

There is even an "eel day" when it is considered auspicious to eat eel for strength and health.

We are re-releasing our Kabayaki ink in commemoration of this year's eel day, July 30th, 2023.

I know it is tempting, but please don't pour this on your rice (≧▽≦)b！
