Ubagamochiya Sakura Ohagi
Ubagamochiya is a long-established shop that has continued for over 450 years in Kusatsu, a post town on the Tokaido highway. Their spring-limited flavor is "Sakura Ohagi." Ubagamochiya is the shop of the famous "Uba-gamochi," originating from the Eiroku era when a wet nurse (uba) began selling mochi to raise her young lord's child. Located in Kusatsu, where the Tokaido and Nakasendo highways intersect, it has long been loved by travelers on the highways. Every spring, this venerable shop displays ohagi topped with salt-pickled cherry blossoms at its storefront. The gentle sweetness of the bean paste combined with the sharp saltiness of the cherry blossom allows you to deeply feel the arrival of spring. This seasonal limited flavor is a masterpiece that many fans eagerly await every year. If you visit Kusatsu in the spring, please do not miss the opportunity to enjoy it.
