Nakamura Tokichi Honten Review

How can I not come to Uji when I'm in Kansai? Walked around the matcha street and decided to just try this ice cream because I know my cousin doesn't want to walk anymore.

I got the matcha and hojicha twisted ice cream ($450 yen I think?). The matcha seems to have a stronger taste than hojicha. Hojicha seems to have a sweet taste to it. There was a good amount of red bean, not overly sweet. The mochi didn't have much taste but a tiny bit sweet, very chewy.

The cone was crispy and it's quite big for the price.

Will come back again, I want to try their ice cream that is not in a cone. I think they put like rice crispy or something at the bottom if you get the cup one.

Heads up, you order ice cream on the side not the front shop.
