The organic, gluten-free granola specialty shop and/or Granola, based near Ueno Park in Tokyo, is expanding beyond breakfast with two new mixed nut snacks designed to pair with drinks: the Mala Mixed Nuts with Sichuan Pepper and Chili Aroma and the ISEKADO CRAFT NUTS Spiny Lobster Dashi Flavor — the second product produced in collaboration with craft beer brand ISEKADO (Ise Kadoya Beer).
Both products stay true to the shop's ingredient-focused approach, using no artificial flavors, sweeteners, or chemical seasonings. A limited Father's Day gift set combining the two new products is also on sale.
Mala Mixed Nuts: Sichuan Pepper Aroma and Layered Flavor
The Mala Mixed Nuts bring together the floral aroma and gentle numbing heat of Sichuan pepper (huājiāo) — familiar from mala tang hot pot — with the spice of chili pepper, layered with the depth of black sugar and savory chicken stock umami. The flavor goes beyond simple heat, offering a complex, moreish quality.
Centered on Chiba-grown peanuts and combined with pecans, cashews, and roasted oats, the product is made without artificial flavors, sweeteners, or chemical seasonings. It pairs well with beer, highballs, wine, and sake, and also works as a standalone spiced snack.

ISEKADO CRAFT NUTS Spiny Lobster Dashi Flavor
The ISEKADO CRAFT NUTS Spiny Lobster Dashi Flavor is a collaboration nut snack produced by and/or Granola to pair with the craft beers of ISEKADO (Ise Kadoya Beer), a brewery rooted in the Ise region that continues to push the boundaries of craft brewing.
The mix features almonds, cashews, walnuts, and small black soybeans from Hokkaido, seasoned with spiny lobster dashi salt for a rich, savory, and aromatic profile. Coarsely ground black pepper from Kerala, India adds fragrance and a gentle spice that brings out the lobster dashi character. The interplay between the lobster dashi, black pepper, and toasted nuts creates a lingering flavor well-suited to craft beer.
