Oboe reeds in Japan (Tokyo)

So, I know this is a suuuper long shot, but… >.>

Unnecessary backstory: I went to music school over 20 years ago and majored in oboe. I left school, did a major shift in work, and basically put down my oboe. Moved to Japan 13 years ago, and off-and-on tried to half-a** picking it up again. Also relevant, I don’t materials to make my own reeds nor the will to reinvest.

Now, I want to seriously play again. I overhauled my oboe so it is oiled up and all key pads replaced. However, it seems oboe reeds are difficult to find. The ones I saw in Yamaha did not impress me. I recently ordered online from Oboe Reed Atelier Hibiki, but haven’t had a chance to confirm how they are.

Does..anyone else have a recommendation for where to get oboe reeds.
