Research notes
Collection page listed this product 'From $27.99' while the individual product page lists $30.00 USD -- flagged as a cross-page price discrepancy. Note this exact product name 'Samidori' also exists as a separate, differently-priced/sourced item under 'Yamamasa Koyamaen' brand on the same site (samidori-yamamasa-koyamaen), which is a distinct product not part of this Rya listing.
