Nara Warangu

A square Langue de Chat cookie with a pattern reminiscent of tatami mats, bringing a touch of Japanese elegance. Nara Warangu is an elegant Western-style confection that utilizes the flavor of Yamato tea. This treat features a fragrant, egg-cracker-like wafer sandwiched with cream made from Nara's famous Yamato tea. Yamato tea is a historic tea said to have been brought from China by Kobo Daishi in the early Heian period, characterized by a deep flavor nurtured by the temperature fluctuations of the Yamato Highlands. Its subtle bitterness is reflected in the cream, pairing perfectly with the crispy texture of the wafer. The tatami-like pattern also adds a sense of Nara-esque charm. With a long shelf life, it is perfect as a souvenir. It is a unique piece from Nara where Japanese and Western flavors gently melt together.
