We select  sweets according to which confectionery matches with which tea.
Sweet and rather heavy confecfionery goes with bitter strong tea.
Something light brings out the deliciousness of thin tea. 
 
 
 

Kagunokinomi (香木実）・・・for thick tea
Kagunokinomi is produced in Aizu region, Fukushima Prefecture.   In Aizu, they produce a considerable amount of big walnuts in good quality.    Kagunokinomi looks like a truffle but is accutually made from bean paste and a walnut in its centre.     As is rich and strong, it definitely goes with thick tea for tasting.
 
 

Goma Yatsuhashi (黒胡麻八ッ橋) and Olive Oshimono (オリーブの押し物)・・・ for  thin tea
Goma Yatsuhashi is made from rice powder, black sesame, suger and a bit of cinnamon .     As we know Greeks are such  sesame lovers, we selected Goma Yatsuhashi for thin tea.
Olive Oshimono is made from Greek olives and Japanese rice powder.

  

Olive (オリーブの打ち物）and Mt.Fuji (富士山の打ち物)
These two kinds of Higashi are dry sweets made with wooden mold.
