This is 100% buckwheat dried soba, milled in-house by "Ishiusu-biki Soba Kobo Yamanomi" in the North Shiga Highlands. The owner personally selects the buckwheat kernels, stone-grinds them with care, and crafts them into noodles using nothing but buckwheat flour. From the moment you begin boiling the water, to the final sip of soba-yu (buckwheat water), this is a dish to be savored slowly.

A table centered on the flavor of soba
Make soba the centerpiece of your meal and take the time to savor every bite. If you add condiments, we recommend trying the noodles plain first, then adding small amounts of garnish. Whether for a daily meal or a dinner with fellow soba enthusiasts, please enjoy it at your own pace.
After the meal, enjoy the soba-yu
After you have finished your noodles, take a moment to enjoy the soba-yu. It allows you to conclude your meal slowly, lingering in the aftertaste of the buckwheat. Please follow the instructions provided with the product for boiling times and preparation methods. We hope you enjoy this specialty from Yamanomi at your own dining table.
