Matchaame Matcha Hard Candy from Kanto, Japan
These traditional Japanese sweets from Tokyo, relished for over two centuries, blend a crunchy texture with profound sweetness, exuding a subtle caramel scent. Crafted from select ingredients like high-grade granulated sugar and genuine mizuame (malt syrup) derived from Japanese sweet potatoes, each batch embodies quality. The unique character of ariheitō sweets emerges from a rigorous method of condensing these elements in copper pots, demanding exact timing; even a minute extra can result in an excessively strong caramel taste. This careful process exemplifies attention to detail, culminating in a perfect equilibrium of delicate flavors and an enticing caramel fragrance.
