・・・ Once you ask, you will never forget the address.

1-1-1 Nihonbashi, Chuo-ku

Here in 1712 (Shotoku 12), Tsuchiura soy sauce brewery: There is the headquarters building of Kokubun Co., Ltd., which was founded and is now familiar with K & K.

To the 1st floor of this headquarters building

Select shop of K&K brand

[ROJI Nihonbashi] "Kit Kat Kit Kit" using black honey from "Eitaro" right across the road.

I found a product unique to Kokubu, which originally started from a soy sauce brewery!

Kokubun's brewery / Raw materials: Rice and malt/alcohol

Old-fashioned "Amazake" with thick mouth.

"Amazake" has been said to be a summer drink since ancient times, but it's also delicious to hang a small amount of ginger juice in winter and have it "Foo, Ho"!

・・・ ・ "How about tasting?" ...

There was a space with a large wooden stand in one corner of the back of the shop, where we sampled it.

After tasting, each one was delicious, so we purchased a variety of collaborative sweets and unique canned foods such as "Sardine Habanero" for tidbits. roji16.jpg roji2.jpg 

On the wall of the space behind it, Nishiki-e from the "Okuniya" era at the base of Nihonbashi was displayed.
