Hamayuki Kanzashi
Born from the famous line in the Yosakoi song, '♪ I saw someone buying a kantsashi (hairpin),' this is a classic souvenir from Kochi. The story of the tragic love between Junshin, a monk of Chikuurin-ji temple, and his daughter Oma, and the hairpin at Harimaya Bridge, has been transformed into a sweet by Hamayuki, whose shop stands right near the bridge. Since its release in 1962, the secret to its popularity has been a unique production method where yuzu-scented white bean paste is wrapped in moist madeleine batter and baked along with silver foil. Hamayuki was the first in Japan to develop this technique and holds a patent for it. As Kochi's number one confection selling over 4.5 million pieces annually, it is a taste of Tosa that is fun to unwrap—try it chilled in summer or warmed in winter.
