    Kagoshima Pref. Kagoshimashi Yoshinochou 9673
    A Japanese confectionary shop which has been in business since the Meiji period. “Jumbo mochi” specialty shop, the establishment only sells jumbo mochi. Consisting of bite sized balls of mochi (glutinous, pounded rice), jumbo mochi are lightly grilled before eating and covered in sauces such as sweet miso, zarame brown sugar, and kudzu. After the Satsuma Rebellion during the Meiji period, it is said these sweets were first created by a former guard of the inner garden of the Sengan-en garden. The 12 mochi plate, which comes garnished with pickles for cleansing the palate, is particularly popular. The shop’s wares are also available for takeout.

    仙巌園-集成館寄ったあとに行きました。歩いても行ける距離ですが、タクシーでそのまま鹿児島駅まで行きました。 味は予想通り普通のみたらし団子でした。

    Kagoshima Ibusuki-shi Yunohama 4-11-9
    This Japanese confectionary shop was founded in 1919. It continues to make around 50 varieties of Japanese sweets including baked sweets made from sweet potatoes, a specialty of the region. Their most famous confection, Ibusukiji, is a baked sweet with a simple flavor made from sweet potatoes, a specialty of the region. It became a popular Ibusuki City souvenir after it became known that Emperor Hirohito had been enamored with the Ibusukiji he was presented. Another of the shop's popular products is their Okura Manju, a confection made with okra, of which Ibusuki is Japan's biggest producer. Yet another is their Soramame Dorayaki, a confection made with unsparing amounts of high-quality broad beans.

    砂蒸し風呂に入り、駅までの帰り道、何か美味しいお土産屋さんないかなと小さな路地をやみくもに歩いていたら有りました。いぶすき元湯の浴場の近くに、鳥越屋さん。 この小道は、かつて指宿温泉街の旧通りとして歴史あり、鳥越屋さんも創業１００年を超える菓子舗でした。結構品数があり、悩みましたが、「そら豆スイーツ」、「どらやき」を買って帰りました。 よもぎ餅とおはぎが美味しそうだったのですが、晩御飯に備えて、見...

    Kagoshima Kagoshima-shi Kinseicho 4-16
    This venerable Japanese confectionary shop established has continued to create karukan since being established in 1854. Karukan is a famous confection of Kagoshima created on the recommendation of Shimazu Nariakira, the lord of the Satsuma domain at the time. Made from nothing more than natural yam, rice flour, and sugar, the confection is notable for a simple sweetness and soft texture that reflects Satsuma's spirit of simplicity and fortitude. Its characteristic flavor and dignified white appearance has remained unchanged. Some of the other popular products include karukan manju, which features karukan stuffed with adzuki bean paste, as well as sakura-sakura, which features gyuhi (soft rice cake) wrapped around white bean paste and topped with a salted cherry blossom.

    Kagoshima Oshima-gun Setouchicho Koniya Matsue 12-8
    A venerable confectionary founded 60 years ago in a town in the southern part of Amami Oshima Island. It began when the founder, who was once a confectioner in Nagoya, used brown sugar from Setouchi to manufacture brown sugar Karinto (a deep-fried snack food made with brown sugar, flour, and yeast). The present owner is from the third generation of his family to operate this shop. Although the shop once made and sold all kinds of confections, it now produces brown sugar Karinto exclusively. The shop opens at 11:30 a.m., but its product is so popular that it is sometimes sold out shortly after noon. Since this Karinto is made with high-quality brown sugar from the neighboring island of Kakeroma and is made by hand according to traditional methods, it makes a fine souvenir of Amami Oshima Island.

Kagoshima Areas

around-area-map

Over 100 active volcanoes across Kagoshima make it one of the Japan's most exciting prefectures. The prefectural capital, Kagoshima city, looks out to one of the prefecture’s most spectacular volcanoes, Sakurajima, an island of its own that can be visited and seen close up or admired from afar, with the promise of breathtaking sunsets complete with frequent puffs of smoke and ash. Down the Satsuma Peninsula, the most southerly part of mainland Japan, waterfalls, sand onsen, and fascinating history await, while Kagoshima's abundance of satsuma imo (sweet potato) provide a wholesome snack as well as one of Japan's favourite drinks - shochu.
