Mimorido Uirou

Chewy and jiggly. This is a traditional Uirou (sweet) that you must try at least once when visiting Yamaguchi. Yamaguchi Uirou is a famous confection passed down in the western capital of Yamaguchi since the Muromachi period, characterized by its use of bracken starch (warabiko). It is completely different from Nagoya's uirou, creating a unique, jiggly melt-in-your-mouth texture. Mimorido was founded in 1927 and is a long-established shop approaching its centenary. The shop was opened as an independent branch by Junsuke Tanaka, who mastered the art of Uirou making at 'Fukudaya,' a shop continuing since the Edo period. We knead high-quality domestic authentic bracken starch into our homemade special bean paste and carefully steam it in bamboo steamers. We offer three standard varieties: White, Black (brown sugar), and Matcha. Please enjoy the gentle sweetness and chewy texture. It is a representative product of Yamaguchi that is also perfect as a souvenir.
