For Miku fans who will be in Korea and or Japan sometime soon, you might want to check out this new super cute collab cafe, which features a menu filled to the brim with minty goodness!
MINT HEIM has caught foodies by surprise, since the cafe exclusively serves things in the aforementioned flavour – the drinks, cakes and even the decor have been designed to provide guests with an all-encompassing mint experience, and who better to collaborate with them than our favourite mint-like-haired vocal synth, Hatsune Miku!

⚠️Note on returns of defective items⚠️
According to the official website, there were printing defects on Hatsune Miku x MINT HEIM official collaboration acrylic stands. Anyone who has noticed a defect (in the print on the background) can get their acryclic stand replaced (conditions apply – see below).
Conditions for exchanging acrylic stands:
Q: Which acrylic stands are affected?
A: Anyone who preordered an acrylic stand and picked it up in-store, or who bought one in-store between September 8th ~ 11th 2023
Q: What do I need to do to exchange my acrylic stand(s)?
A: Take a photo of the defective product(s) and send it as an attachment in an email addressed to [email protected]. If you have multiple defective items, send photos of all that are relevant. Make sure to include the method with which you purchased the item (preorder or in-store purchase) and the date you purchased/received it in the email.
Q: What’s the deadline for exchanging my defective merchandise?
A: You have from now until October 29th at 23:59 JST to claim your new acrylic stand. If no email is sent before this deadline, you will not be able to receive a replacement.
Q: When will I receive the replacement acrylic stand(s)?
A: They will apparently be shipped from late september onwards. If you do not have a Japanese residential address to send the items to, it is unlikely that you will be able to claim a replacement, so please keep this in mind!
