A specialty matcha sweets shop set along the pilgrim approach to Naritasan Shinshoji Temple, easily spotted by its vivid green signage. Part of the nationwide SAWAWA (Terakoya) chain of matcha dessert shops, it is best known for its hand-cut, in-house warabimochi (chewy rice-flour mochi) dusted with rich matcha powder. The counter also serves matcha soft-serve and gelato, matcha lattes, and both sweet and unsweetened cold matcha, making it a favorite quick stop for temple visitors and inbound tourists craving a matcha treat between sightseeing and shopping along the sando.
