Okuizumo Soba Manju

The fragrant aroma of buckwheat paired with the gentle sweetness of red bean paste. This soba manju is unique to Okuizumo, one of Japan's three great soba regions. Okuizumo Town is a land that has nurtured fragrant buckwheat alongside rice grown in terraced fields. Known as a production area for Izumo Soba, where the buckwheat is ground with its husk intact, the flavorful locally ground buckwheat flour is used not only for noodles but also in the making of Japanese confectionery. This soba manju features a dough wrapped in the savory aroma of buckwheat, enveloping a moist bean paste to create a simple yet deep flavor. This is a unique manju that truly shines with the character of the soba region. It is a rustic souvenir unique to Okuizumo, perfect for taking a relaxing break with a cup of tea.
