The Uji district of Kyoto has long been famous for its premium quality matcha which is known for its deep flavor and sharp fragrance.
The theme of this new matcha series is “deep matcha” and the products certainly live up to that with the perfect combination of deep matcha flavor with the sweet donuts. The donuts are made using flavor combinations typically found in traditional Japanese sweets, such as kinako (soy bean powder), azuki (sweet red beans), mochi (rice flour dumpling), and warabimochi (starch dumpling).
Here is a look and short description of the 9 products available right now at Mister Donut in Japan.
