Shiki by Bashodo Honpo
A Japanese confection from Dogo Onsen, named after the haiku master Masaoka Shiki. Created by Bashodo Honpo, a long-established shop in the Dogo Onsen shopping district, "Shiki" is a famous sweet with over 80 years of history. This sweet features smooth bean paste kneaded with persimmon jam, gently wrapped in chewy gyuhi (soft mochi). The soft sweetness of the persimmon blends with the smoothness of the bean paste, followed by the lingering chewy texture of the gyuhi. It is also a prestigious item that was once selected as a confection to be presented to the Emperor and Empress during the Showa era. Located near the Dogo Onsen Honkan, it is the kind of flavor you'll want to pick up on a whim after a soak in the hot springs. With a name fitting for the literary city of Matsuyama, it is a Japanese sweet meant to be savored slowly. It tastes even more delicious when paired with tea.
