井之廣製菓舗
Inohiro, established in 1908, is known for its Miso wheat crackers (Miso Senbei) baked in a traditional style that is largely unchanged since its inception.
The crackers are made using select Japanese ingredients, with multiple varieties finished with toppings that complement the base miso. Try wild sesame, ginger, sweet potato, green tea—or even coffee.
The miso crackers can be bought as small batches, or individually wrapped in a gift set, ideal for sharing as a souvenir.
