Chestnut Manju 'Tsuki no Usagi' (Moon Rabbit)

A chestnut manju that evokes the night sky where rabbits hop across the moon. This is a popular chestnut manju made by 'Nanohana,' a Japanese confectionery shop in Odawara and Hakone. It features a whole, soft chestnut enveloped in dough finished with a fragrant barley flavor. This heartwarming treat transforms a scene familiar to Japanese people—looking up at the moon and imagining rabbits—into a confection. It is well-loved as a souvenir from Hakone. When you break open the moist dough, a large, chunky chestnut is revealed. The savory aroma of barley and the gentle sweetness of the chestnut harmonize in your mouth. With an elegance that suits both tea time and gift-giving, it is a taste of Hakone you'll want to enjoy with tea during long autumn nights.
