Arida mikan is the name for Wenzhou mikan (satsuma mandarins) grown in the Arida region of Wakayama Prefecture, and the Bunzaemon Arida Mikan 5kg introduced in this article is, according to the product page, also from Arida, Wakayama. However, what the “wakeari” (a Japanese shopping label for items sold with a stated reason) label covers, the storage method, and when a pre-order item will arrive are hard to tell from the product page alone, and there are several points worth checking before purchase. In this article, we organized the publicly available product information and review-site listings for Kinokuniya Bunzaemon Honpo’s Bunzaemon Arida Mikan 5kg into five points: amount, storage method, ingredient labeling, suitability as a gift, and reviews. Its key features are that it is a 5kg, 35–70-piece pack filled without sorting by size, and that 2,640 Rakuten reviews have been posted.

Summary: Is This the One for You?
Why choose it: You don’t mind uneven sizes, and you want 5kg delivered in one go. If those two are your conditions, this 35–70-piece pack, filled without sorting by size, fits (weak point: the amount comes in this single size, and unlike Home-Use Arida Mikan (Wakeari), Choose from 3kg, 5kg or 10kg, 3kg and 10kg cannot be chosen).
- The Rakuten rating is 4.38 (2,640 reviews), and among the top 20 or so reviews in the “standard” sort order, comments on sweetness, minimal spoilage, and repeat purchases stand out
- There are also posts saying part of the fruit was crushed or spoiled, and comments wanting a bit more tartness
Other options: If you want to choose the amount, see Home-Use Arida Mikan (Wakeari), Choose from 3kg, 5kg or 10kg or 伊藤農園 Wakeari Arida Mikan (Small), Choose from 2.5kg, 5kg or 10kg.
