Sakura mochi with Kuki Gyokuro
Sakura mochi is pink-coloured rice cake with a red bean paste centre, wrapped in a cherry blossom leaf pickled with salt. Its combination of a slightly salty taste and the sweetness of the refined bean paste will bring a smile to your face. Sakura mochi goes well with the taste and verdant fragrance of Kuki Gyokuro.
