White Day- Valentine's for the Ladies!

White Day is the day the men repay the women back with gifts for the previous month's holiday- Valentine's Day. Read more here: Valentine's Day

In Japan, you can see many couples spending a romantic night out- and the gifts the ladies receive are typically more expensive than the gifts the ladies give on Valentine's day- and that is how it should be!

Happy Valentine's Day From Rinkya!!

In Japan, the ladies pony up the gifts for the man on Valentine's Day.
The most common gift is chocolate and the two given are called- giri choco and honmei choco.

Giri choco is obligatory chocolate, and in a polite society such as Japan these are neccesary to give to your male co-workers and such.

Honmei choco is the chocolate you give your love. Other gifts may be purchased for Valentine's Day, but not to the extent of US culture.

The men return the favor one month later on March 14th, White Day!
