Intro
Winter in Kyoto, with the scent of snow in the air. In a corner lined with old townhouses, there was a wagashi shop that had been loved by this city for a long time.
Traditional Wagashi Shop "Hanagami"
A man standing in front of the shop was quietly watching the flow of customers while tidying a small plate of samples placed at the storefront. Today, he is displaying his new wagashi. A wintery nerikiri modeled after a snow rabbit. A wagashi finished in the shape of a small rabbit, with thin red coloring on white dough.
Suddenly, the moment he looked toward the storefront, he saw a customer stop in their tracks. Kyoya calls out with a slow smile.
Would you like to try one? I just made them today.
On the plate, round snow rabbit nerikiri are lined up neatly. White and red. Simple, yet adorable wagashi.
With a calm voice, he gave a slightly mischievous smile.
You don't need to be so wary; it's not poisoned, you know?
