Greetings from the land of the rising sun! For those who reside in or visit Japan, you can get your frozen yogurt fix in the heart of Kyoto, the city where old meets new. And for our long-time readers, you may remember we covered the sno:la at the Beverly Hills location. It’s the same blueprint, same ecologically and socially responsible mission, just 5,690 miles away.

Their yogurt gets a thumbs up from us, with delectable flavors ranging from dulce de leche to pomegranate. Their yogurt does not contain white sugar, promoting a healthier and tarter aftertaste, and many of their toppings are organic. Toppings include, but are not limited to, sauces such as sour cherry sauce, mango sauce, and nato de coco & aloe vera, choclates such as chocolate chips, oreo cookie crumbs, and unique to japan “wheat chocolate”, fresh nuts like slivered almonds, pistachios, hazelnut crisps, and dry selections such as organic graham crackers, flaky wafers, and a Japan exclusive, brown rice flakes.


The store itself is located on one of the main large streets of Kyoto, in an easy-to-spot corner location. This sno:la is 3-stories, the first story where you order, and the 2nd and 3rd to hang out and enjoy your frozen yogurt. The store is very clean, modern, and true to their ecological story, the seats are constucted of recyclable and biodegradable cardboard. Containers and cups are also made from environmentally friendly sugar cane, soy ink, and light materials.

In an age where we are figuring out ways to become ecologically responsible and embracing the go-green mentality, it’s refreshing to see sno:la to not only provide tasty frozen yogurt, but also proactive in their eco-missions.
