Wakana-ya Ritsuami
This is 'Ritsuami,' the signature confection from Wakana-ya, a specialty chestnut shop in Kyoto. Wakana-ya was founded by a predecessor from Tanba-Sasayama, named in honor of the famous chestnut-producing region. Each Ritsuami is a labor-intensive masterpiece: the tough outer skins are peeled individually by hand, the fuzz is removed from the inner skins, and the chestnuts are carefully simmered and preserved in syrup without breaking, finished finally with granulated sugar. It was inspired by the candied chestnuts (kanroni) served in Kaiseki cuisine. You can fully enjoy the rich flavor of large, plump chestnuts. These delightful Kyoto chestnut sweets are perfect for autumn, pairing beautifully with tea or as a gift. It is a masterpiece that every chestnut lover should taste. You can truly experience the bounty of the Tanba chestnut region.
