Matsuura Honten Tomonoura Castella
Baked by Matsuura Honten in the port town of Tomonoura, a place that suits the sea breeze, this "Tomonoura Castella" offers a simple and warm flavor with soft, fluffy sponge cake and a crunchy sensation from the granulated sugar on the surface. The batter is made using Hon-mirin (true mirin) brewed in Tomonoura. Interestingly, this hon-mirin also serves as the base for Tomonoura's specialty, Houmeishu. Houmeishu is a historic medicinal liqueur that is said to have been first produced in this region by Nakamura Kichibei in 1659 and was protected by the Fukuyama Clan. The gentle, natural sweetness provided by the mirin is slightly more subtle than standard castella. It is a popular item for visitors to purchase as a companion while strolling through the historic streets of Tomonoura.
