Kikusui Ame (Chrysanthemum Water Candy)
A traditional malt syrup that has been loved by travelers since the Edo period. This famous confection has been continuously produced by 'Kikusui Ame Honpo,' located along the old Hokkoku Kaido highway in Yogo-cho, Nagahama City, Shiga Prefecture. With a history said to date back to its founding in 1636, it has long served to soothe the fatigue of travelers passing along the highway. We still adhere to the traditional manufacturing method, which involves slowly fermenting grain starch with barley malt without using sugar or additives. It is characterized by its unique style of being eaten wrapped around a chopstick and the gentle sweetness of maltose. Its smooth, melting texture offers a simple and warm flavor that is delicious whether enjoyed just as it is or used in cooking. Please enjoy this specialty of the Hokkoku Kaido, passed down for over three hundred years.
