Wakocha -flavored Wagashi

Have you tried Wagashi (Japanese traditional sweets) before? Have you ever tried Wakocha (Japanese black tea) ? Both are very “Japanese”, aren’t they?

Now, more “Japanese” stuff, “Wakocha-flavored wagashi” is on sale at a wagashi shop “isshin” in Osaka. 
title   "WARAKU"


Many have believed that wagashi only goes well with green tea like Sencha or Matcha, but of course, it does really match with black tea, especially the one born in Japan, wakocha.

I’ve worked as a coordinator for the birth of this sweets. I would love to see many people enjoy this sweets with very delicate and gentle wakocha flavor.
