Sakuramochi (Yoshino)
Mount Yoshino is renowned as Japan's premier destination for cherry blossoms. The 'Yoshino Sakuramochi' reflects the brilliant atmosphere of that spring season. A key feature of the Kansai-style sakuramochi is the use of textured Domyoji-ko (coarse rice flour). The sweet bean paste is gently encased in a chewy dough and softly wrapped in a salt-pickled cherry leaf. With a single bite, the subtle saltiness of the leaf and the fragrance of spring rise beautifully. It is a seasonal wagashi worthy of Yoshino's cherry blossoms, which are famously described as 'a thousand trees at a single glance.' This spring delicacy is the perfect companion for flower viewing. You can fully experience the charm of Yoshino, a famous cherry blossom site, through your palate. It is a spring confection you will want to savor while imagining rows of cherry trees in full bloom.
