Sanyudo Kimori
A famous confection from Takamatsu that encapsulates the spirit of Chanoyu (tea ceremony) in a single bite. 'Kimori' is the flagship sweet of Sanyudo, founded in 1872 by three former Takamatsu domain samurai who lost their positions due to the abolition of the feudal system. 'Kimori' refers to the single fruit left remaining on a persimmon tree in late autumn—a custom of leaving it behind to pray for a bountiful harvest the following year and to provide food for wild birds. The name is also derived from the 'Kimori' red Raku tea bowl, which was said to be cherished by Sen no Rikyu. This sweet features homemade dried persimmon yokan sandwiched between Fu-yaki senbei (wheat crackers), coated with Sanuki's specialty Wasanbon sugar. It is a sophisticated treat for adults, where the gentle sweetness of the persimmon harmonizes with the elegant notes of Wasanbon sugar. A masterpiece to be savored slowly alongside matcha.
