Exotic and unorthodox, it has a beautiful bold palate with rich flavour and a sweet scent, created by combining the umami of red miso and malt.

Hagi Roll
Hagi Roll is dried filefish (kawahagi). This item is basically a fish jerky. You can taste the rich and deep oceanic essence and flavor. Though a unique acquired taste, it is one of the most popular snacks (otsumami) for drinkers in Izakaya restaurants. Toast the surface, cut into small pieces and serve with Japanese mayonnaise!
Soft Pucchin
This snack is is made of surimi and baked in a delicious kamaboko (fishcake) style. The soft texture is addictive! It is cut into small easy-to-eat pieces and is a staple snack in Japanese homes that goes well with beer, or any other alcoholic beverage. Use toppings such as mayonnaise, shichimi, and soy sauce to make it even more flavorful!
