Murasakino Wakuden, a gift shop that follows in the footsteps of the traditional Japanese restaurant Kodaiji Wakuden and was founded as a ryokan inn in Kyotango, Kyoto, is selling winter gifts that bring seasonal flavors, such as refrigerated gifts and Japanese sweets, for a limited time until Saturday, February 28th.
Sea bream noodle soup (room temperature)
This collection features a selection of dishes that can only be found at a traditional Japanese restaurant, from dishes that can be enjoyed as snacks with sake to gentle, sweet dishes. The "Tai Nyumen" can be given at room temperature, and has a gentle and elegant taste, with the rich flavor of fragrantly grilled sea bream blending into the broth. It is useful not only as a gift, but also as a stockpile at home.
Karasumi mochi (refrigerated)
Don't miss Wakuden's famous "karasumi mochi," a winter staple that has long been a favorite. Lightly grilled, it brings out the aroma of the mochi and the rich flavor of the karasumi.

Furthermore, "Lotus Mochi Chestnut Bean New Year's Packaging" is also on sale, which is made by combining lotus powder with wasanbon molasses and encasing a smooth, pureed chestnut paste. The votive plaque-shaped packaging, featuring the zodiac sign of the horse, is perfect as a New Year's greeting gift.
Murasakino Wakuden has been carefully expressing ingredients and the seasons under the philosophy of "bringing the beauty of Japan to your everyday dining table." We would like to deliver winter gifts that have been refined to suit modern life and that attitude to your loved ones.
