Minamoto Kitchoan will release Japanese sweets "Rabbit-san" and "Shugetsuya" with the motif of a rabbit floating on the moon. Sold for a limited time.

The harvest moon of this year is September 21st. Since it was the time when the moon looked the most beautiful throughout the year, it is said that people enjoyed holding the "Moon Viewing Feast", where they watched the moon and wrote waka poems during the harvest moon. "Rabbit-san" and "Shugetsuya" entrusted such traditional Japanese customs to Japanese sweets in the shape of cute rabbits.
