The front is a gorgeous, clean design with a mizuhiki as the dominant feature. Mizuhiki is a kind of traditional Japanese knot, often used in gift giving, and Sugimoto selected it for their 80th anniversary to symbolize the gratitude and connection shared with their farmers, their team, and their customers. Here’s to another 80 years of bonds!
