Suehirodo Yoshino Kuzumochi

Located near Konkou-ji Temple in Naramachi, Suehirodo is a long-established shop founded in 1902. Their signature product is 'Yoshino Kuzumochi.' Made with Nara's pride, Yoshino Honkuzu (authentic kuzu starch), and filled with smooth red bean paste from Hokkaido, this is a transparent and refreshing Japanese confection. Yoshino Honkuzu is a high-quality, smooth starch produced by repeatedly washing the starch extracted from kuzu roots in cold water during winter. Its silky texture harmonizes elegantly with the lightly sweetened smooth red bean paste. The smooth sensation as it glides down the throat is particularly delightful during the hot season. This is a flavor that has been preserved for a long time in Naramachi, an area filled with the atmosphere of the ancient capital. Perfect as a snack with tea or as a gift, it is a dish that truly embodies the essence of Nara.
