Tradition and Care in Every Scone

Having lived in London, we had the chance to visit scone bakeries all over the city.
We opened this shop so that people in Japan can also enjoy traditional British scones — with their signature side crack — together with a proper cup of tea.

Our bakery is located in Sano, a small town in Tochigi Prefecture. Sano is also home to the beloved mascot Sanomaru, the Sano Premium Outlets, the Sano Yakuyoke Daishi temple, and the famous Sano ramen.
If you are visiting the area, we would love for you to stop by.

How to Enjoy a Proper Scone

A quick guide to British afternoon-tea style

1

Split it by hand

Skip the knife — gently break the scone in half with your hands, the British way. Splitting it sideways reveals a soft, fluffy crumb.

2

Pile on the cream

Add plenty of clotted cream. Devon style puts the cream on first; Cornish style starts with the jam.

3

Enjoy with tea

Earl Grey or Darjeeling pairs beautifully. A warm cup of tea alongside makes it a truly blissful moment.
