This tiny shop features products, food, liquor and crafts from Ōita Prefecture. Look for comestibles like jams, teas, spices, condiments and shōchū (strong distilled liquor), and unique crafts like richly wood-grained sandals, and pens and pencils made out of bamboo branches. It's at the northern entrance of the Sol Paseo Ginza Arcade.
