Tamales in Japan
タマレス通販
At Nippon Viajero, tamales are more than food — they are tradition, memory, and community wrapped in corn masa.
Each tamal is handmade using traditional Mexican techniques, generously filled, wrapped, and steamed in small batches. Naturally gluten free, our tamales are crafted with care and shipped frozen throughout Japan so you can bring a piece of Mexico into your home.
We currently offer our classic Pork Tamales Rojos and a plant-based Vegan Tamales (Calabacitas en Salsa Verde), so everyone at the table can share in the experience.
Perfect for gatherings, celebrations, or simply reconnecting with comforting flavors.
