At the end of the year, when I visited a friend’s house, I was treated to some delicious fish they had received through “Furusato Nozei.” That made me wonder what kinds of return gifts Nishinomiya offers, so I looked it up.
I’ve never tried “Furusato Nozei” myself, so I’m really curious.

The correct answer is all of them: a, b, c, and d～
So no matter which one you picked, everyone got it right (^o^)／
You can choose any of these items😀（depending on the donation amount）
The thank-you gifts vary depending on the donation amount, and it’s fun just browsing through them.
By the way, a. ＜Henri Charpentier＞ Assorted Financiers and Madeleines, 16 pieces
is ranked No. 1 in popularity for Nishinomiya City♪
The entire top three are all ＜Henri Charpentier＞😅

Finally
Taking a quick look through Nishinomiya City’s thank-you gifts, there were plenty of sake-related items, which makes sense for a city with many of Japan’s leading sake brewery districts, such as Nishinomiya-go and Imazu-go.
Now I’m getting curious about Furusato Nozei gifts from other cities too～
