Higashidori Soba

The cool climate of Shimokita nurtures highly aromatic soba. This is Higashidori Soba. In Higashidori Village, the large temperature difference between day and night allows starch to accumulate firmly in the buckwheat grains, resulting in a rich flavor and aroma. It is said that the village's soba culture is even older than its rice cultivation; since ancient times, 'Katcha' (grandmothers) have hand-crafted soba without binding agents to serve at celebratory occasions. This tradition continues to be cherished today. We use 100% Higashidori-grown Kitawase variety, prepared as Juwari-soba (100% buckwheat) without any additives. Stone-ground to maximize its aroma, this hand-made soba features a thick texture and an authentic buckwheat fragrance that lingers in the nose. It is a deeply nourishing bowl that lets you experience the true strength of this hidden specialty region.
