Shiiba Soba
Heirloom buckwheat grown via slash-and-burn agriculture. The soba from Shiiba Village, one of Japan's three great hidden regions, is a nutritious dish born from mountain village life. In Shiiba Village, the practice of slash-and-unburn agriculture—clearing and burning mountain slopes to grow crops—is still passed down. The heirloom buckwheat harvested from these fields is characterized by its small grains but powerful aroma. When made into hand-cut soba, you can enjoy a rustic flavor and firm texture. During the 'Shiiba Heike Festival,' serving soba is used to welcome visitors. A bowl made with pure mountain water allows the aroma of the buckwheat to pass through your nose with every slurp. Please try this simple soba that the lifestyle of this hidden region has continued to protect.
