Mochisho Shizuku

Renowned for its original and creative mochi sweets, the shop operates under the concept of "aiming to be the best medicine through sweets." The main ingredients—glutinous rice, adzuki beans, rice flour, mochi flour, sugar, and grains—are meticulously selected, focusing on natural farming and pesticide-free cultivation. The shop even contracts with identifiable producers for year-round cultivation, demonstrating a strong commitment to quality ingredients.

The signature items are the daifuku mochi, which come in 5 to 8 varieties, including both standard and seasonal offerings. The standout is the "Kuro-mame Mochi," combining freshly cooked black beans from Tamba, freshly pounded mochi, and smooth red bean paste. Other popular choices include the "Kusa Mochi Queen of Herbs" made with yomogi, known for its various health benefits, and the vividly colored "Framboise Mochi" tinted with beetroot. Besides the elegant daifuku mochi, the "Shinmachi Shigure," which won the Prime Minister's Award, is also noteworthy. This simple steamed sweet made from rice flour and organic sugar showcases the natural flavor of adzuki beans and is popular across all age groups.

The stylish concrete interior features a sales counter, gallery space, and an eat-in area, allowing customers to enjoy the handmade mochi sweets as if they were appreciating art.
