This is fresh pasta sold by Tsukiji Banya Co., Ltd. (株式会社築地ばんや) of Sakaide, Kagawa Prefecture. The manufacturing site (製造所) is shown as Sanuki Menshin Co., Ltd. (株式会社さぬき麺心), also in Sakaide, Kagawa, and the wheat flour in the ingredient list is labeled “国内製造” (made in Japan). Even though it says “6 servings,” it is actually three bags of 2 servings each, so the amount per serving and how it arrives are hard to tell.

Suitable as a Gift?
The description on the product page showed noshi (gift wrapping label) as “not available” (source: Rakuten Ichiba product page description, accessed October 13, 2026).
- Noshi: not available (as shown in the description)
- Wrapping, message card, name printing: we could not confirm them
- Delivery: Yu-Packet (dropped into the mailbox), and the arrival date and time cannot be specified. You cannot choose a day that suits the recipient
- Effort for the recipient: it can be stored at room temperature, so no freezer space is needed. Because it arrives in the mailbox, check how it will be received
Of the first 59 reviews in the default order, 2 said the pasta was sent to the reviewer’s parents’ home or a daughter’s home. This is a use chosen by the buyer, not a statement that the shop supports gift-giving (source: Rakuten customer reviews, accessed October 13, 2026. This applies only to the 117 reviews we read and may not reflect the product’s current condition).

What Reviewers Note
Small amount and how “6 servings” is counted

How to check: the weight of one bag and the per-serving conversion are summarized in the “Quantity” row of this article’s “Basic Information” (180g, 90g per serving).
Noodles only, no sauce included
12 of the 58 ★1 and ★2 reviews said that the reviewer took the photos or product name to mean sauce was included, or bought it without knowing it was noodles only. All were posted in September 2024 or earlier.
How to check: that this is a noodles-only set with no sauce is stated in the “Quantity” row of this article’s “Basic Information.”
Soft, closer to udon
12 of the 58 ★1 and ★2 reviews (2 of them posted in the last two years) said it felt closer to udon than to pasta, or felt soft.
In addition, 3 of the ★1 and ★2 reviews and 1 of the reviews in the default order said the noodles stuck together and would not loosen.
