Kagi Ryuzo

The first thing to catch the eye at Kagi Ryuzo is the soba tsukune, a sweet that people who have visited several times speak of with particular affection. One reviewer described its dough as soft and slightly fluffy, with the flavour of the beans inside coming through clearly. It is also chosen as a gift, so you might pick some to enjoy yourself and some to take home for others.

Warabi mochi, sakura mochi and chestnut pie are also worth considering. One person who bought warabi mochi alongside kuzumochi and other sweets remarked that the prices were reasonable. Those who tried the sakura mochi and chestnut pie shared their enjoyment of each. Reviewers report that the selection includes mainly dry sweets and treats that keep well, alongside seasonal fresh confections, making it easy to choose for anything from an everyday snack to a gift.

If you are looking for something seasonal, keep an eye out for Jozan mochi, which is reportedly sold for about a week around the middle of 6 month. Reviewers also mention fresh, elaborately made sweets around the year-end and New Year period, so the selection offers different pleasures at different times of year.
