Bunsendo Honpo Shin-Toriyaki (Red Bean)
When you break through the crisp, fragrant crust, glossy, perfectly cooked bean paste overflows. The lightness of the crust and the moist sweetness of the paste melt together in your mouth. Bunsendo Honpo is a long-established confectionery founded in Shinbashi in 1948. Their signature 'Bunsen Monaka' is shaped like the 'Bunsen' coin from the Edo period. It is said that the founder created this item inspired by a stylish anecdote where geishas kept this old coin as a charm. It is so beloved that it became the very name of the shop—the face of the establishment. The bean paste retains the shape of the grains, allowing you to fully experience the savory flavor of the beans. For over seventy years in the alleys of Shinbashi, the aroma of the crust has been baked unchanged. Paired with a cup of tea, it provides a moment to truly relax. As a gift, it is sure to spark great conversation.
