Imazo Soba
This is a highly aromatic heirloom variety of soba passed down in Imazo, a former post town on the Old Hokuriku Highway. Imazo is a post town nestled in a valley surrounded by the Hino and Takura Rivers. The local climate, characterized by significant temperature fluctuations and frequent mist, produces high-quality buckwheat grains that are small and firm. It is said that the variety known as 'Imazo Zairai' has been cultivated since the beginning of the Edo period, with the pure waters from snowmelt supporting its unique flavor. When the railway arrived in the Meiji era, the 'standing-style soba' enjoyed during stops at Imazo Station gained fame throughout the country. This is the taste of a post town that has long welcomed travelers on the highway with warm soba. Please come to the land of Imazo and experience the rich aroma of freshly ground and freshly made noodles.
