Ocha no Ka Sekinoto

Fukagawaya is a long-established shop that has continued for over 380 years since the Kan'ei era (early Edo period) in Sekijuku, a post town on the Tokaido. This particular treat adds a unique twist to their traditional confection, 'Sekinoto,' specifically tailored to the tea-growing region of Mie. We have generously coated the surface of the Sekinoto—which consists of gyuhi (soft mochi) and smooth red bean paste—with finely ground local Kameyama tea powder, stone-ground using a traditional mill. Upon taking a bite, the pleasant bitterness of the Kameyast tea gently spreads across your palate, followed by a delicate sweetness. It presents a new, tea-infused dimension to this famous confection, which is said to have been devised by descendants of ninjas. Its appearance, reminiscent of the snow accumulating on the Suzuka Mountains, is also deeply evocative. This is a treat you can savor slowly, alongside the historic atmosphere of the post town.
