"Moss ball cheesecake" that represents the moss of Heisenji

One item on the ROKUSAI menu that particularly catches your eye is the "Moss Ball Cheesecake."

The matcha that covers the cake represents the beautiful moss of Heisenji cake also contains secret ingredients such as plums and citrus fruits from Fukui, giving it a refreshing taste that is a little different from other cheesecakes.

*Reservations are not accepted.

"Rich Matcha Latte" made with carefully selected tea leaves

Our recommended drink is the "Rich Matcha Latte," which lets you taste freshly brewed matcha.

They use carefully selected matcha from Uji, Kyoto. The tea is brewed and poured into the milk after the order is placed, making this a special cup of tea.

You can adjust the sweetness, and for those who want to fully enjoy the aroma of matcha, we recommend "unsweetened."

"Hojicha Latte" is recommended for those who don't like matcha

Even those who don't like matcha can enjoy the Hojicha Latte. At ROKUSAI, both matcha and Japanese tea are served under the supervision of YUGEN, a popular Japanese tea specialty store in Kyoto. Even if you don't like matcha, you should definitely visit ROKUSAI to try this specially made cup of tea.
