Bizen Ancient Style Yokan "Bitchu White Adzuki Yokan"
“Bizen Ancient Style Yokan: Bitchu White Adzuki Yokan” is crafted by the long-established Eieido using rare Bitchu white adzuki beans. This masterpiece conveys the confectionery culture of Okayama, characterized by its elegant sweetness and smooth mouthfeel. Bitchu white adzuki is a rare variety with whitish skins that produce a translucent bean paste. Due to the difficulty of cultivation and the labor-intensive selection process, production is low, leading it to be called a "phantom luxury ingredient." It is said that the yokan served by Toyotomi Hideyoshi during the Azuchi-Momoyama period was also made from these white adzuki beans, and they have been carefully cultivated in the Bitchu region since ancient times. This treat features a light, elegant sweetness with the unique flavor of white adzuki beans spreading through the palate. Please take your time to savor this taste nurtured by Okayama's history along with some tea.
