A classic manju filled with bean paste. With its moist dough and mildly sweet
filling it always goes down well.

‍

We partnered up with Nemotoen to bring you this exclusive blend of their matcha
and sencha. Blending the fullness of matcha powder with the bright and vegetal
taste of sencha makes this tea a special treat that moves across the palate.

Shiroebi, or white shrimp, are pale pink colored shrimp lauded as ‘Jewels’ of
Toyama Prefecture. Combined with locally sourced glutinous rice, this arare is a
treat for any seafood lover.

2022 October Beniharuka Sweet Potato Cookie

Sweet potatoes are yet another famous product of Ibaraki. This adorable cookie
resembles the very Beniharuka sweet potato it is made of. Ideal for an afternoon
tea break.

A specialty of Mito, natto fermented soybeans are a love or hate food, even for
Japanese people. This snack style natto is perfect for a first taste, as it has
been dried to get rid of the stickiness and reduce the characteristic strong
smell. We recommend a drink to counteract the saltiness.

Made with melon juice from Ibaraki, this refreshingly sweet melon jelly is
perfect for those hotter autumn days. Pairs well with cakes and a cup of tea.

‍

Full of juicy Ibaraki strawberry jam, this mini tart is the perfect mix of sweet
and sour.

While carrots are yet another crop frequently grown in Ibaraki, this puffed rice
treat is merely playing with the shape for its packaging. Created in Ibaraki
over 50 years ago, it always gets a reaction for the nostalgia it evokes.

‍

A cookie filled with sweet white peaches grown in Okayama prefecture. Full of
aroma and ideal with a hot cup of tea.

Named after famous 10th century samurai Taira No Masakado, who to this day is
revered as a symbol of strength and resistance, this senbei is made with locally
sourced Ibaraki rice and soy sauce. Simple, honest and best enjoyed with a cup
of tea.

‍

Konbu, or edible kelp, is a staple of Japanese cuisine as it is used to make
dashi broth. Rich in nutrients and with no other seasoning than salt used, this
arare is a truly healthy snack.

Ibaraki-grown Beniazuma are one the sweetest and least fibrous sweet potatoes
there is. Mixed with white bean paste and a dash of brandy before baking, the
sweetness is just right.

Buckwheat, Peanuts, Soy, Sesame, Peaches, Apples

Ibaraki Prefecture boasts the largest production of chestnuts in the country,
making them a popular souvenir. We partnered up with CorCarino to bring you this
exclusive chestnut flavor karinto. Just the right mix of crunchy and sweet, it
perfectly compliments a cup of tea.


Packed full of flavor, this manju blends white bean paste with blueberries and
blueberry juice from Ibaraki’s Omitama City. Also tastes great when chilled.

‍

Ibaraki produces an outstanding number of products, with each city offering a
local surprise. We're embracing that spirit this month, by including a surprise
tableware item. What will you get?

‍

This month we want to share the fruits of Ibaraki’s labors with you, both culinary and cultural. Enjoy freshly harvested traditional confectioneries, snacks and tea.

Home to a rich history of samurai, one of Japan’s top three gardens, and Mt. Tsukuba, a symbol of fertility covered in lush forests.

Inundated with fresh produce from the fields such as chestnuts, sweet potatoes, and melons, there’s plenty of choices for the visitors of Ibaraki.

Ibaraki prefecture has been known as a major center of agriculture for centuries, making it especially important during October, the harvest season.
