Papersky #23 Kyoto
Wagashi Trip
A serious Wagashi Trip with an overall goal of capturing Kyoto’s entire history and culture through traditional sweets, or Wagashi. With our guest Tomoko Tabata we track down over twenty makers of traditional Japanese sweets which have been around for anywhere from three to over twenty-three generations. This issue also features Kyoto Garden photography by Naito Tadayuki, musician Masakatsu Takagi, remaking the Nicola Bouvier journey as an ‘A to B’ from Geneve to Tokyo, a story by Dennis Johnson (translated by Motoyuki Shibata), reports from Cuba (‘First Trip’), Chamonix (France), Nassau (Bahamas), Roma (Italia), Oregon (USA), Akita and Russia in addition to our regular columns.
