牧成舎

This independent milk dairy producer can be found just across the Araki River. It's a much-loved local brand dating back to 1897, whose dairy cows are raised at the nearby Ayu-no-Se ranch, surrounded by Hida's abundant nature.

Bokuseisha is well-known for its Monaka-style ice cream offering using hand-baked wafers, which comes in a variety of flavors and can be picked up around Hida too. It goes without saying, but their fresh milk makes for great soft-serve ice cream too, but Bokuseisha sells a wide range of dairy products including cheeses and yogurt.
