Hitachi Aki Soba introduction

Hitachi Aki Soba (常陸秋そば, Hitachi Aki soba) is a renowned buckwheat variety from the northern region of Ibaraki Prefecture, an area historically famed as a top soba-producing region since the Edo period. Its ideal conditions for cultivation, such as large temperature differences between day and night and excellent soil drainage, contribute to exceptional buckwheat. This signature brand, developed from indigenous varieties by Ibaraki Prefecture, is characterized by its large seeds and deep, dark color. Praised for its balance of natural sweetness and rich, nutty aroma, Hitachi Aki Soba is a true delight for soba enthusiasts.
