Mogami River Three Difficult Passes Soba

Hand-kneaded soba that slides smoothly down the throat with a rich aroma. The more you chew, the more the natural flavor of the buckwheat flour spreads throughout your mouth—this is the Mogami River Three Difficult Passes Soba of Murayama City. 'Three Difficult Passes' refers to the treacherous spots known as Goten, Mikase, and Hayabusa, which were feared by boatmen during the era when river transport on the Mogami River was flourishing. Along the highway following this route, soba shops stand side by side. In Murayama, there was a custom of gathering around hand-kneaded soba after finishing farm work, and in 1994, this area was named 'Soba Kaido' (Soba Highway) to invite many people to experience this tradition. Flavorful soba nurtured by pure water and significant temperature fluctuations. Soba lovers visit from all over to enjoy the traditional Ita-soba (soba served on wooden boards).
