Chestnut

A fluffy and sweet taste of autumn. These are the Obuse chestnuts that the town of Obuse, lined with famous chestnut sweet shops, takes great pride in. The connection between Obuse and chestnuts is ancient, with cultivation said to have already existed during the Muromachi period. During the Edo period, they were carefully managed as the 'Oribayashi' (official forest) of the Matsushiro Domain, and the finest chestnuts were presented to the Shogunate. The annual presentation of these delicious chestnuts caused the name of Obuse to resonate throughout the country. Although the grains are small, their rich flavor is guaranteed. During the harvest season in September and October, the entire town bustles with people seeking chestnut picking and chestnut sweets. An exquisite chestnut nurtured by 600 years of history. With just one bite, you can experience the full richness of autumn in Obuse.
