Nagamochiya Roho Main Branch
Another historic confectionery shop from the early Edo period making Kuwana's signature 'Yasunaga Mochi.' Uses domestic mochi rice and Hokkaido azuki, with no malt syrup, resulting in a firm elongated mochi with a distinctive texture. No additives. 100 yen each. About 3 minutes on foot from JR Kuwana Station. Sells out daily. Open year-round from early morning.
141 Tabelog reviews, 12 TripAdvisor reviews. Praised for 'a distinctive, firm mochi texture,' 'hard to choose between this and Kashiwaya after comparing both,' and 'great that it opens early in the morning.' Has a dedicated fan base who prefer the no-malt-syrup recipe. Regular buyers visit every time they come to Kuwana.
