Hello!

Tomorrow (February 15th, 2026) we will be holding an exciting Happy Day where you can win local specialties from Niimi City.

This time, you can win "Original Coffee Chiyanokaze" and "Hime no Mochi", specialties of Chiyanonosato, where Ibuki no Sato Ski Resort is located!


"Original Coffee Chiya no Kaze" is a delicious and soothing coffee from " Kura Cafe on the Hill, " where Kuroda Gyubei-kun is staying . Perfect as a snack or to relax after a meal. Enjoy a relaxing moment while remembering Gyubei-kun!

"Kura Cafe on the Hill" is located about a 10-minute drive south from Ibuki-no-Sato Ski Resort towards Niimi city. Inside the cafe, you'll find unique cat-themed decorations, including the principal image (beckoning cat) of Nekorakuji Temple, installed by the cat-loving owner.

It is open from 11:00 to 16:00 on Fridays and Saturdays, and while advance reservations are required for lunch, it is not necessary to make a reservation for the cafe.

For more details, please check Instagram .

When you hear the word Hime no Mochi, some people may think of the neighboring village of Shinjo, but according to the grandparents of Chiya, " Chiya was the first to grow and sell Hime no Mochi in Okayama Prefecture (there are various theories)," and it is a rice cake that represents the local Chiya. This time, we have prepared Bitchu Chiya Mochi (Hime no Mochi) from AMeDAS Lodge. These sticky rice cakes are made from "Hime no Mochi" glutinous rice grown in the cool climate of the Chugoku Mountains using compost made from mountain grass. Once you try them, you'll never forget the taste of your hometown.
