Yamamomo Gari (Wild Bayberry)

This seasonal confection from Hamayuki captures the essence of 'yamamomo' (wild bayberry), which is also the prefectural flower of Kochi, directly within the sweet. The characteristic sweet and sour flavor of the yamamomo, along with its vibrant reddish-purple color, is a delight to both the eyes and the palate. It brings the feeling of early summer to Tosa, the southern land. Hamayuki is a long-established Kochi shop known for its 'kanzashi' (hairpins). For over 70 years, they have continued to create confections that utilize locally harvested fruits. The season for yamamomo is short, making it a treat enjoyed only during the limited period of early summer. With just one bite, the sweet and tangy flavor of the fruit spreads softly through your mouth. It is a taste of Tosa's early summer, something you'll want to savor as if to cherish the fleeting season. If you encounter it, please be sure to try it.
