Obuse-do Kuri Kanoko
The iconic confection representing the chestnut village of Obuse is Obuse-do's 'Kuri Kanoko.' Founded in the Meiji era as a merchant house trading tea, salt, and sake, Obuse-do began making chestnut sweets in the 1870s. This is a 'kuri kinton' made by carefully kneading chestnut paste made only from chestnuts and sugar, with large pieces of chestnut kernels generously embedded within. It is said that it was named 'Kanoko' because the pattern of chestnuts scattered in the paste resembles the spots on a young deer. It offers an elegant sweetness derived solely from the chestnuts without any unnecessary additives. With every bite, the hearty flavor of chestnut spreads. The bountiful harvest of autumn in Obuse is tightly packed into a single jar. This is a masterpiece we can confidently recommend to all chestnut lovers.
