A Must-Have Souvenir from Japan to Delight in Singapore: Wagyu Beef, Now Easily Brought Onboard with Our New Service!

September 30, 2023

One common dilemma for those traveling to Singapore is selecting the perfect souvenir. While you can easily grab some Japanese snacks from the airport with a budget of 1,000 to 2,000 yen, choosing a premium gift for someone more familiar with Japan or when you have a more generous budget can be challenging.

With the global market's evolution, most Japanese products are now available in Singapore. However, items exclusive to Japan are particularly cherished.

Did You Know Dining Tops the List for Singaporeans Visiting Japan?

The number one activity Singaporeans love to do in Japan is indulging in Japanese cuisine, according to the Japan National Tourism Organization's survey.

While there are numerous Japanese restaurants in Singapore, the authentic taste of Japan remains unparalleled. Two highly recommended souvenirs for the discerning are Japan's seasonal fruits and, of course, Wagyu beef.

Japanese fruits are world-renowned for their exceptional quality. Whether it's peaches in the summer or pears and persimmons in the fall, these seasonal delights are always a hit. Another must-mention is Wagyu beef.

Wagyu is a Favorite in Singapore

Given Singaporeans' love for Japanese cuisine, it's no surprise that Wagyu beef is a hit. However, there are mainly two types of Wagyu available in Singapore: Japanese Wagyu and Australian Wagyu.

It may surprise many Japanese, but there's a significant amount of foreign-produced "Wagyu" circulating abroad. Naturally, the taste is worlds apart from genuine Japanese Wagyu. While authentic Japanese Wagyu is available in Singapore, it's in limited quantities, and the quality often falls short of what's available in Japan. Coupled with the high cost of living in Singapore, it tends to be pricey.

Gift a meat enthusiast with premium Japanese Wagyu, and you're guaranteed to delight them.

Did You Know You Can Bring Wagyu as a Personal Item or Hand Luggage?

 

A highly recommended option is to bring Wagyu beef as a souvenir. While there are people who might avoid beef due to religious reasons or personal preferences, those who receive Wagyu as a gift are invariably thrilled.

For more details on bringing Wagyu, check out this article.

Many aren't even aware that they can bring meat, adding to the surprise factor. Moreover, the Hida beef offered by GOZZO is a rare brand even within Japan, making it a unique find in Singapore.

Being sourced directly from the producers, the beef is of the highest quality and offered at local prices. When brought as hand luggage, you save on shipping costs too.

However, please note that there's a limit of 5 kg per person for personal consumption.
