Ajara Mochi
"Ajara Mochi" is a traditional confection from Sasaki Keitsukudo, established in 1907, and has been loved for over a hundred years in Owani Town, Aomori Prefecture. Its name is inspired by Mount Ajara, which towers over Owani Town. The soft mochi dough is kneaded with sugar and contains plenty of whole walnuts, with absolutely no additives used. Its hallmark is the simple, rustic flavor of the ingredients themselves. There is even an anecdote that His Imperial Highness Prince Chichibu kept this mochi in his pocket while enjoying skiing in Owani. Its unpretentious, gentle taste makes it a perfect accompaniment to tea at Owani Onsen. It is a warm and comforting mochi that has long been a part of the daily lives of the people of Tsugaru.
