Questions
Q: What’s the difference between the two box choices ??Asked by Manuel R., March 2020
Zdravstvuite (Hello) Manuel! The monthly Russia Box is shipped monthly. The quarterly Russia Box is shipped every 3 months. Otherwise, they are the same. Thank you for reaching out, Juliana @The Russia Box
Q: I want to order this box. is there any way I can have a set of nesting dolls added to my order or will they be in one of the coming 3 boxes? Asked by Christal M., December 2020
Hi Christal,
Spasibo (thank you) for your question! If you order now, the box you will receive will contain a Matryoshka keepsake box (which is a larger Matryoshka souvenir that is not a nesting doll - you can see it on our store website under the "what's inside" tab). This item is limited and we are just about out, so please order right away to receive that souvenir. If you are specifically interested in a Matryoshka nesting doll, please email me when you order and we can add one to your box).
Thank you,
Juliana @The Russia Box

Wonderful box! We asked to get in early on this shipment since our adopted Russian daughter was having her 16th birthday this month, and Juliana was so helpful and we got it in time! Vera was so happy to see all the wonderful candies and snacks!
At first I was a little disappointed in the size of the box, but we found out that it was packed FULL of goodies!
A great selection of items, and not the typical Russian candy. We especially liked the cranberry ПРЯ́НИК (Pryaniki Gingerbread cookies), and we think they will go even better with the Raspberry tea!
The Matryoshka doll was very cute and well made. Everything was fresh and very tasty. We will certainly be keeping our subscription. I can't wait until next month! Thanks!

I ordered this for my brother for Xmas and he loved it. My only suggestion is that there should be an option to NOT have an email sent to the recipient telling them what it is beforehand.

Love this box. Just want it to try it and this was perfect. Love the amazing detail of the paper let you know what is what in the box. I get the Matryoshka theme box that came with a matryoshka, love the detail in this box.

This has been an excellent box for Russian major son (and us by extension as he is good about sharing). The treats are not all just dime candy (though there are a couple of those in every box and they are great), but also actual desserts and great snacks. The small trinkets that are in the boxes are not super fancy but are very interesting and are not junk.
We have also figured out that the rest of the world is actually better at candy and snacks than the US, which is sad (Step up your game, America. We are being beaten in snacks by literally the entire planet).
This box is also an EXCELLENT value compared to other crates. We are allowing our subscription to auto-renew for the foreseeable future.
