Tomaya

Candy Store
"This Japanese tea specialty shop, a five-minute drive from the Kitsuki Interchange on the Oita Airport Road, is located in the valley in Japan's only ""sandwich"" castle town situated between the samurai residences of Kitsuki's Kitadai and Minamidai hills. The longstanding establishment was founded in the mid-Edo period. Operating out of the city's first building to be designated a National Tangible Cultural Property, the shop is filled with Edo period tea utensils, tea chests, tea mortars, and much more. The shop's Hokokuichi deep-steamed tea leaves are particularly popular and are prepared according to a proprietary method using leaves from specially contracted farms. In the shop's cafe space, you can enjoy fresh-brewed tea along with a rakugan candy or other Japanese sweet. Order the Matcha Set and you can also enjoy a simplified tea ceremony experience."

  • 年代物のお雛様

    ひいな祭り開催中に行きました。店内の奥、靴を脱いであがる座敷に新聞にも出た古いお雛様があるから、ぜひに!とお店の方に云われ見学してきました。人の家の仏間にお邪魔してる感覚でしたがお雛様は珍しい物で良い物が見れました。帰りがけに最中を買って帰りのおやつにしました。甘さ控えめで美味しかったです。
  • 차와 관련된 음식, 다기를 사기 좋았어요.

    버스 정류장과 가까운 곳에 있어서 들리기 좋았어요. 차와 관련된 도구를 구할 수 있었어요. 차 담아놓는 예쁜 틴 케이스를 구매했어요. 그리고 녹차 캔디도 있었는데 맛있어요! 여주인분이 정말 친절하세요. 차를 마실 수도 있다고 알고 있는데 다음에 가면 꼭 경험해보고 싶네요.
  • おもてなしに甘えて休憩。

    とても古い町家そのままの老舗のお茶屋さん。古くから夏用、冬用と、建具など模様替えをして過ごされるそうです。バスの時間まで見物しようと立ち寄ったらお茶と羊羮を出していただき、のんびりしていたらお茶のおかわりまで、、。バスの時間を心配していただいたり、お店の方達のあたたかいお人柄を味わって、旅の良い思い出になりました。
