"Beauty for 500 Yen: The Artisans Crafting 'Takaoka Ramune' by Blending Tradition and Modernity"

Like a Craft! Beautiful "Takaoka Ramune"

A childhood candy that everyone has eaten, ramune.

When you hear "ramune," what shape comes to mind?

This time, we introduce a ramune that will surprise you with its delicacy and intricate design, almost like a craft.

The product is called "Takaoka Ramune."

It is made by "Ohnoya," a long-established wagashi shop with over 170 years of history in Takaoka City, Toyama Prefecture.

Adult Ramune with a Focus on Ingredients ♡

"Takaoka Ramune" is made using a "wagashi mold" that is also used for rakugan and others.

They sought to create nostalgic and easily accessible sweets for everyone, leading them to "ramune."

The ramune made by Ohnoya differs from regular ramune in its ingredients.

While typical ramune uses potato starch or corn starch, "Takaoka Ramune" focuses on texture and uses rice flour made from Koshihikari rice from Toyama Prefecture.

No artificial flavoring is used, and they focus on local ingredients such as apples and plums from Toyama Prefecture, insisting on using only domestically sourced items.

Developed after much trial and error, "Takaoka Ramune" is handmade by the wagashi artisans at Ohnoya.

A Heart-Throbbing Package with Traditional Patterns ♡

"Takaoka Ramune" is also known for its stylish packaging.

The colorful traditional patterned packaging is so appealing that you can't help but want to pick it up.

They aimed for "cuteness that can be enjoyed by young women who love fashion while appreciating Japanese culture."

Enjoy a Gentle Taste ♡

There are four varieties in the lineup.

☑ Ginger flavor <Ho-ōzukushi>

☑ Yuzu flavor <Kaīzukushi>

☑ Strawberry flavor <Hanazukushi>

☑ Apple flavor <Omikurayama>

It's a luxury to have ramune made with real fruit instead of flavoring! ♡

Each bag contains 10 pieces of ramune with auspicious motifs like a mallet of luck or treasure bag.

Each piece is delicate and beautiful, making you feel it's almost a shame to eat them.

There are also limited edition products, featuring unique ramune in shapes like strawberries, hearts, and that of Toyama Prefecture.

You will definitely want to take pictures of them! ♡

"Takaoka Ramune" is 540 yen per bag ♡

The carefully handmade adult ramune, "Takaoka Ramune," is priced at 540 yen per bag.

It's perfect not only as a souvenir from your trip to Toyama but also as a cute gift for weddings.
