Where to get Ougon-ichimi ("Hottest spice in Japan") outside of Japan

Hi everyone,

I recently picked up a single bottle of some yellow chilli powder at Nishiki Markets in Kyoto.

It's fantastic, I love it!

Problem is, I can't even find a single reference to "ougon-ichimi" on the Internet, let alone somewhere that I can buy it online.

Does anyone have any ideas? Could there be a potential other translation, or is this just a local brand?

I haven't yet got enough posts to put pictures in this post, so I've attached them instead. One is the stand and the sign at Nishiki, and the other is the bottle itself.


Thanks heaps!

Here's a link to the HP of the company that makes it. You can order the ichimi through this site but there is no mention of them shipping overseas in the Shopping Section. Call them up and ask.
