Nishio grows more matcha than anywhere else in Japan, and almost no foreign visitor knows it. Nagoya’s coffee shops handle the rest of the sugar.

FAQ

Good to know

What sweets are essential in Nagoya?
Ogura — sweet red bean. From ogura toast onward, this city puts anko at the centre. Uiro, a steamed rice-flour confection, is the other Nagoya classic, sold at the station and souvenir shops.
What does uiro taste like?
Steamed rice flour and sugar — chewy, only mildly sweet. It comes in plain, matcha, red bean and more, and most varieties do not keep long.
Is this separate from kissaten sweets?
They overlap. Ogura toast turns up in kissaten morning sets, so if it is early, look at the coffee shop listings too.
