Yonaguni Hana-ori Sweets

Simple and warm island sweets from Yonaguni, the westernmost island of Japan. These are souvenirs inspired by the island's traditional craft, 'Hana-ori.' Yonaguni Island preserves 'Yonaguni Hana-ori,' a textile with about 500 years of history. Its geometric patterns, resembling connected small flowers, are beautiful and have been cherished as a craft rooted in island life. Sweets using brown sugar and Kuba-mochi have long been enjoyed on this island. Kuba-mochi is mochi steamed in Kuba (windmill palm) leaves and is indispensable for the island's harvest festivals. Kuba-mochi is characterized by its chewy texture and the subtle sweetness of brown sugar and purple sweet potato. It is an unpretentious, gentle flavor passed down for hundreds of years. Please feel the taste of the homeland nurtured by this remote island, along with the warmth of the textile.
