Used for centuries as a medicinal herb, yomogi is an aromatic herb from the Japanese mugwort plant that grows in the southern area of Japan.

It is commonly used in wagashi (traditional Japanese sweets), soups, teas, and rice dishes as a natural food coloring and  for added flavor.

After being run by four generations of women, the company is now in its fifth generation and is run by the family’s young son.
