Shoreido Sansa Taiko
A signature confection from Ichinoseki's Shoreido, inspired by the drums used in Morioka's summer tradition, the 'Sansa Odori' dance. The name is so evocative you can almost hear the energetic chants of 'Sakkora Choi Wayasse.' Legend has it that the Sansa Odori began as a celebration where people danced around rocks to commemorate the deity of Mitsuishi Shrine defeating an ogre. It is even said that the ogre's handprint on the rock became the origin of the name 'Iwate.' This vibrant dance, featuring simultaneous Japanese drum performances, has even been recognized by Guinness World Records for its scale. Inside these drum-shaped sweets, you will find a generous amount of bean paste with a gentle sweetness. One bite will transport you back to the passionate summer of Morioka. Please enjoy it with a cup of tea.
