Aoiya Yaki-mochi (White / Mugwort)
This is a famous specialty rice cake with a delicious, toasted aroma that has been beloved for a long time in front of Kamigamo Shrine. It is produced by the Aoiya Yaki-mochi Honpo, located right in front of the torii gate of the World Heritage site, Kamigamo Shrine. The area surrounding Kamigamo Shrine has long been known for its specialty 'yaki-mochi' (toasted rice cakes). Made with mochi from high-quality rice, these cakes are filled with homemade tsubu-an (chunky red bean paste) and toasted to a fragrant golden brown. You can choose between two types: plain white and mugwort-infused. The combination of the freshly toasted, crispy exterior and the gentle sweetness of the bean paste inside is exquisite. The pairing of the refreshing scent of mugwort with the sweet bean paste is also exceptional. It is a simple and warm rice confection that makes a wonderful souvenir of your shrine visit or a classic Kyoto gift.
