A fantastic Japanese sweet that reflects the "night sky of Tanabata". Introducing the "Milky Way".

A summer-only product from Kyoto's Japanese sweets shop, Nanajyo Kanshundou. The dark blue amber is studded with silver foil stars to express the "night sky of Tanabata". Due to its beauty, it is often talked about online during the Tanabata season for the past few years.





Underneath the amber kingyoku-kan are the mijinkan and the kingyoku-kan. A translucent white runs between the clear blue and the matte, powerful azuki color.


Amber is crisp, elastic and has a refreshing sweetness. You can enjoy the chewy texture and rich sweetness of azuki beans.


The taste of the miso soup sandwiched between them is made from glutinous rice and has a smooth texture. It has a cool accent.

The whole is not too sweet and has a light and light taste. It seems to go well with cold green tea.


A dish that looks and tastes perfect for this season. Sales locations include actual stores in Kyoto, online shops, some department stores nationwide, and special events (this time, obtained at the national confectionery corner of Nihonbashi Takashimaya, Tokyo). Details can be found on the official website of Kanshundou Shichijo, so if you are interested, please check it out.
