Nakadaya Sakura Kintsuba

A spring edition of kintsuba from the famous Kanazawa shop Nakadaya, beloved by many who say, 'When it comes to kintsuba, it's Nakadaya.' Founded in Tsurugi-machi in 1934 and later moving to Higashiyama after the war, Nakadaya has remained committed to using Hokkaido-grown Dainagon adzuki beans. Artisans carefully cook these large, sugar-rich beans so they remain plump without falling apart. The spring-exclusive 'Kintsuba Sakura' features white bean paste adorned with salt-pickled cherry blossoms. The subtle scent of cherry blossom, accompanied by a hint of salt, drifts gently through the mild sweetness. This is a luxurious and special treat available only during a limited time of the year. Please enjoy it slowly while feeling the arrival of spring.
