[New Release] "Matcha Latte Mochi" Appears, Expressing Matcha Latte with Matcha Mochi x Milk Anko! Sales Start Sequentially in Kyoto from April 2026!

Kyo Saga Horakuan Co., Ltd., which develops souvenir confections in traditional Kyoto, will release "Matcha Latte Mochi," which combines matcha mochi and milk anko (bean paste), named "Kyoto Mochi Peptan." The dumplings, particular about texture and ingredients, are individually wrapped, making them easy to distribute and perfect as souvenirs.

With traditional Kyoto matcha sweets as the theme, we considered the very existence of dumplings. If they were too large like daifuku, they couldn't be eaten in one bite, and the synergistic effect of matcha and milk wouldn't be achieved. However, with just one ball, it's a little unsatisfying. Therefore, we combined two balls onto one skewer, creating a bite-sized yet satisfying experience.

The matcha powder is a carefully selected matcha from a long-established Uji tea specialty store, which has continued since Tenmei 1 (1781), handling everything from raw material selection to grinding. We use 100% of this "Kyoto-produced" Uji matcha.

Through research-guided unique formulations, we have succeeded in maintaining the texture of the mochi dough for a long time. Rich matcha powder is kneaded generously into the chewy mochi dough, allowing you to feel its abundant flavor. Furthermore, by dusting matcha powder on the outside as well, you can experience the matcha flavor more intensely from both the inside and the outside.
