Description
Eitaro-ame is Eitaro's representative product, continuing to provide an unchanging flavor by inheriting manufacturing techniques that go back to the Edo period (1818). Set Contents UMEBOSHI AME, OKINAWA BROWN SUGAR, MATCHA (1 tin each) br br A syrup made from brown sugar and sweet potatoes is heated directly at a high temperature and boiled down to create candy. The timing of pouring it from the pan must be determined by the confectioner. Once it reaches a moderate temperature and hardness, it is molded into triangles. Under strict quality control, we continue to uphold the recipe from the Edo period to this day through the hands of our confectioners.br brUMEBOSHI AME Eitaro-ame made with the original recipe of aruheito imported by European traders. The flavor and shape remain unchanged since the Edo period. It is characterized by a rich flavor without any bitterness and a light, crunchy texture. The pun-loving people of Edo named it Umeboshi-ame because the appearance of the not yet solidified crimson-colored candy cut with scissors and formed by hand into a triangle shape resembled an umeboshi pickled plum. br br OKINAWA BROWN SUGAR Okinawan kokuto brown sugar sprinkled with cinnamon. We have been making Kuro-ame from refined brown sugar harvested from Kohama Island and Iriomote Island in Okinawa prefecture for over 100 years. Making full use of the unique flavor of the islands, the Kuro-ame is characterized by an aromatic and deep richness.br br MATCHA It has the traditional taste of flavorful domestic matcha. In addition to the crisp and light feeling while chewing that does not get stuck in your teeth, the complex flavor brought out by the heating temperature of the sugar has a unique richness that you will never tire of.
