Kinman-do Honpo (Onomichi) Hassaku Komochi
A small mochi confection made by the long-established Onomichi shop Kinman-do Honpo using Hassaku oranges from Innoshima. The Hassaku is a citrus fruit associated with Onomichi, said to have been discovered at Jodo-ji Temple on Innoshima at the end of the Edo period. An filling that utilizes its refreshing flavor is gently wrapped in chewy gyuhi (sweet rice dough). It is easy to eat in bite-sized pieces, and as you chew, the characteristic bitterness and sweet-tartness of the Hassaku softly spread through your mouth. The citrus aroma leaves your palate feeling refreshed. This is an item that allows you to easily taste the blessings of the Shimanami Kaido, the island chain famous for its citrus. It is a stylish Onomichi-style wagashi that shines with the careful craftsmanship unique to a shop that has continued since the 5th year of the Taisho era.
