Ibuki no Sato Yomogi Dango
Mount Ibuki, which also appears in the 'Kojiki' and 'Nihon Shoki', has long been known as a treasure trove of medicinal herbs. This 'Yomogi Dango' (mugwort dumplings) is made using mugwort harvested at the foot of Mount Ibuki. Mount Ibuki is often referred to as a sacred site for medicinal herbs, so much so that they were presented to the Imperial Court during the Heian period. Renowned as a mountain for Shugendo (asceticism), the fragrant mugwort nurtured by its rich nature is a blessing unique to this land. We carefully knead freshly picked mugwort into the dough. Experience the refreshing aroma of mugwort spreading through the chewy dough, paired with the simple sweetness of red bean paste. It is a traditional Japanese confection characteristic of Shiga, allowing you to taste the very essence of the nature found at the foot of Maibara and Ibuki.
