There are some more details in the government press release:
UK and Japan agree historic free trade agreement

The devil is in the detail.
Tariff free access for more [not all] UK goods – new and more liberal Rules of Origin will allow producers of coats, knitwear and biscuits to source inputs from around the world for their exports to Japan – making it easier and cheaper for them to sell to the Japanese market

“Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.”
