I think i randomly bought this spice in kyoto in 2023.
Its very good. I mix it with salt and chili powder and sprinkle on fresh fried chicken.
But i ran out and im coming back only in osaka in october.

It is indeed from a Kyoto shop that has two branches in the city. I researched last September and couldn’t find any proof of them shipping overseas. You might get luckier having product shipped to Osaka.

That’s 黒七味 (black shichimi)
You can find it online for sure, I couldn’t tell you an exact physical location to get it but it’s not uncommon

Kuroshichimi or Black Shichimi (7 spice) from Maruya Kyoto

Kuro shichimi, black 7-spice powder. Fabulous on yakitori, good on certain other grilled things too. There’s a few brands that make it, but I’ve never seen it in the states, not sure if that’s where you are. Not even The Japanese Pantry in SF has it, though you might ask them, I haven’t checked in a couple years. You might have to just load up on it next time you go!

Adding to what others said, if you don’t want the exact brand, you can find Shichimi (or Nanami Togarashi) in most Asian stores around the world. For example from S&B, the most common shichimi in Japan. Kuro Shichimi is just roasted longer to be darker.

Regular (not black) shichimi, also sometimes labled nanami, can be found pretty easily in the US – at least in places with a significant Asian population.

I bought this exact shichimi in the store on the first floor of Kyoto Tower! There they sell spices, udon stock, matcha sweets and other traditional candies
