[Kikusuian] Sendai Chizunda Mochi

Kikusuian is a brand operated by Ocha no Igata as stores selling tea and Japanese and Western sweets mainly in Miyagi Prefecture . Kikufuku, a matcha cream daifuku that has been on sale since 1998, is famous.

The name of the zunda mochi sold here that can be stored at room temperature is ``Sendai Hitokuchi Zunda Mochi . It is characterized by the use of glutinous rice "Miyakogane" from Miyagi Prefecture.

This can also be stored at room temperature for about two weeks from the manufacturing date.

• 4 pieces: 650 yen (tax included)
• 8 pieces: 1,200 yen (tax included)
• 15 pieces: 2,300 yen (tax included)

Three types are on sale.

Package of four. The box is about the same size as Zunda Saryo's Sendai specialty Zunda Mochi, and has an impressive design with the single character "Zu".

Inside, there are four individually wrapped zunda mochi.

Kikusuian's zunda mochi is round and has a shape similar to daifuku.

A cross section of Zunda mochi. It is filled with quite a lot of bean paste. The texture of the beans is firm and the flavor of the zunda is amazing.

Not only is it bite-sized, it's easy to eat, but it's filling and gives you a great sense of satisfaction with each bite. However, since it is packed with bean paste, you will want a little water. However, the calorie per serving is approximately 67 kcal . Although it's filling, it's healthier than the one at Zunda Saryo.

This zunda mochi can also be purchased at all souvenir shops inside Sendai Station. However, if you have the chance, we recommend taking a look at the Kikusuian Zunda Stand The store is filled with Zunda products and is very green. I think it will be a good memory!

summary

The two products are almost the same, from package size to price range. Is there almost no difference? That's what I thought, but it was quite different.

This is just my personal opinion, but if you want to enjoy the perfect balance between the texture of mochi and the flavor of zunda, go to Zunda Saryo. If you're concerned about calories but still want to feel the deliciousness of Zunda in your mouth, Kikusuian is the place to go. Although they were only slightly different, they had their own distinct characteristics and were both delicious.

The four-piece set is reasonably priced and the packaging is cute, so I think it would be perfect as a souvenir to give out in small quantities to a lot of people. I think. If you are having trouble finding Sendai souvenirs, please consider these!
