Kangetsudo Sobahana-mochi

A fragrant mochi confection born from a region famous for its soba noodles. Obanazawa is the prefecture's premier soba destination, also known as the place where Basho stayed during his journey in 'Oku no Hosomichi.' The area takes pride in its soba with strong sweetness and aroma, such as 'Yukikura Soba,' which utilizes the characteristics of this heavy snowfall region. Using buckwheat flour from Obanazawa, Kangetsudo carefully prepares these chewy mochi sweets. With every bite, the savory aroma of buckwheat gently rises. It offers a refined taste that differs from the local 'Kujira-mochi' sweet of the same Obanazawa region, making it a hidden gem from Kangetsudo that is sure to delight soba lovers as a gift. You can experience the essence of the Obanazawa landscape, once walked by Basho, in a single bite.
