“Fukuju Mochi” Made with Specially Cultivated Kogane Mochi Rice from Uonuma, Niigata Prefecture (Herb Flavor)
The Kogane Mochi rice used as the main ingredient is specially cultivated with a 50% reduction in chemical fertilizers and pesticides. The water used is underground water from Tsunan, renowned for its pristine natural springs.
The mochi is prepared using the traditional kine (pestle) pounding method, where the pestle falls naturally. Each batch is individually inspected, with skilled artisans assessing the texture and elasticity by touch and sight. The mochi is carefully pounded to enhance its firmness and flavor.
The yomogi (mugwort) used is wild and locally harvested from Tsunan. This results in a vibrant color and a fresh aroma, making it a truly delightful and flavorful treat.
