Chichibu Soba

As you slurp the noodles, the aroma of buckwheat gently rises. With a firm texture and a flavor that expands with every chew, this Chichibu soba is packed with the blessings of the mountains. Chichibu is a basin surrounded by mountains on all sides. It is said that the rocky, poor soil has been suitable for buckwheat cultivation since ancient times. The significant temperature fluctuations between day and night, as well as summer and winter, combined with the clear waters from the upper reaches of the Arakawa River, nurture fragrant and robust buckwheat. In this region, it was once a custom for every household to make soba to entertain guests during festivals, New Year's, or visits from afar. It has become deeply rooted in daily life as a local taste. A single bowl refined by the climate of the mountain village. If you visit Chichibu, please give it a try.
