It's finally the homecoming season. I have found a wonderful Japanese sweet that the whole family wants to carve out, so I would like to introduce it.
This is "Amanohara" from the Japanese sweets shop "Yui" in the premises of JR Shinjuku Station. It is a namagashi that encloses the seasonal "Mt. Fuji" in the clear agar.
The half-sized "Amanohara Summer" that I purchased has a refreshing green design that resembles Mt. Fuji in the summer. Depending on where you cut it, you can enjoy various changes in facial expressions, such as no snow cover or fluttering clouds.
The smooth agar is chewy, and the elegant sweetness spreads slowly afterwards. Lemon juice was a refreshing accent, and the overall taste was refreshing.
It can be stored at room temperature, but it is better to chill it when eating. Please try beautiful sweets with a lot of emotion with cold tea and matcha!
The price is 1,728 yen for a half-strip that changes its design depending on the season. In addition, you can enjoy the transition of the four seasons as a whole with one sashimi (3,240 yen) (both including tax).
The store is located at NEWoMan 2F Ekinaka, 4-1-6 Shinjuku, Shinjuku-ku, Tokyo. Business hours 8:00 to 22:00, weekends and holidays 8:00 to 21:30. * JR admission ticket is required to use
