Onomichi Shimanami 'Hassaku no Kaze'

This is 'Hassaku no Kaze,' a famous confection from the Onomichi/Shimanami Kaido area, made using hassaku citrus born in Innoshima. Legend has it that the hassaku citrus was discovered within the grounds of Jodo-ji Temple on Innoshima at the end of the Edo period. This baked treat fully utilizes the characteristic slight bitterness and refreshing juice of the hassakus from their place of origin. With a subtle bitterness balanced by sweetness, it offers a deep flavor that can be enjoyed by children and adults alike. It is an irresistible taste for citrus lovers. With a single bite, a refreshing aroma spreads, reminiscent of the sea breeze blowing across the islands of Shimanami. This is a baked sweet characteristic of Onomichi, packed with the charm of Seto Inland Sea citrus.
