Enjoy Kurosengoku Kinako Kudzu Mochi and Kudzu Manju on Tanabata!

Monday, July 8, 2024

Tanabata is the day when Orihime and Hikoboshi meet once a year after crossing the Milky Way.

Kudzu mochi made with Kurosengoku soybean flour is enjoyed on Tanabata Day!

Kudzu mochi made from Yoshino kudzu (100% kudzu root starch) is generously sprinkled with Kurosengoku kinako and topped with brown sugar syrup!

It's soft and creamy, with a gentle sweetness that spreads slowly...
