Hello! This is Tenbusu Organic Market.

Today, we introduce “Mebukiya Yomogi Daifuku!,” which envelops you in a rich fragrance like a spring field from the very first bite. The most significant feature of this Daifuku lies in its thorough commitment to the quality and quantity of mugwort. We luxuriously use only the young buds of domestic mugwort, which are considered to have the best aroma. Furthermore, by steaming the mugwort within one hour of harvest, we lock the youthful and mellow fragrance directly into the mochi dough while suppressing any unique bitterness.

The foundation of the mochi dough is "Himenomochi" glutinous rice from Shiwa Town, Iwate Prefecture, Mebukiya's home region. This rice has exceptional stickiness and stretch, and when combined with our carefully self-milled Gyuhi-ko (glutinous rice powder), it creates an incredibly soft yet firm texture. Wrapped gently within that dough is a smooth Tsubuan (chunky sweet bean paste) made from carefully simmered Hokkaido adzuki beans. The moment the mugwort fragrance and the flavor of the adzuki beans overlap is truly a blissful experience.

Additionally, Mebukiya takes pride as a "flour miller" and is dedicated to making products without relying on additives. Because the freshly-made flavor is frozen using a unique rapid freezing technology, you can enjoy a freshly-pounded softness anytime by simply allowing it to thaw naturally at room temperature for about two hours.

Since no preservatives or colorings are used, everyone from children to the elderly can enjoy it with peace of mind. We confidently recommend it as a small treat for yourself or as a seasonal gift for someone special. Please experience the deep flavor and refreshing aroma that only real mugwort can provide at home.
