Meibutsu Mimuro

In front of the Miwa Myojin (Omiwa Shrine) gate, there is a monaka that has been continuously produced for over 170 years: 'Meibutsu Mimuro.' Since the founding of Shiratama-ya Eiju by the first generation in 1844, the production method and flavor have been passed down through seven generations as a family secret. The name 'Mimuro' is derived from Mount Miwa, the deity of Omiwa Shrine. It features 'Kanoko-an,' made by cooking smooth and chunky red bean pastes in separate pots before combining them, using carefully selected premium Dainagon adzuki beans. With moderate sweetness, it offers an exceptional taste that maximizes the flavor of the beans. This is a prestigious confection with a history of being presented to Emperor Showa. We hope you will pick this up as a souvenir for your pilgrimage to Miwa.
