Kokoro Yasashiki Igossou (Kind-hearted Igossou)
The name comes from the Tosa dialect word 'Igossou.' However, contrary to its name, the flavor is infinitely gentle. 'Igossou' refers to a stubborn and single-minded man of Tosa. Despite the bold sound of the name, the long-established Kochi confectioner Hamayuki named this simple baked good 'Kokoro Yasashiki Igossou' (Kind-hearted Igossou) because it provides a sense of heartwarming relaxation. It features dough with a subtle hint of cinnamon softly enveloping a lightly sweetened egg yolk bean paste. When you take a bite, the fluffy, melting dough and mellow bean paste become one and dissolve in your mouth. The aroma of cinnamon serves as a gentle accent, making it perfect to accompany tea. Despite bearing the name of a stubborn person, it is a classic Tosa confection loved by everyone.
