    "This long-established Japanese confectionery shop was started in 1798. Ogaki is called the ""City of Water,"" and the popular confection ""Kinchoen Manju"" is the result of trying to create a sweet that suited the water of Ogaki with modified research. The sweet bean paste using plenty of good quality groundwater has a clean taste without any harshness. It is their prided product wrapped in yeast for making sake that they have made for over 150 years. Tesshin Ohara, who was once the feudal lord of the Mino-Ogaki domain, was very impressed when given them, and it is said the name of the confection was chosen in a song to praise it."
