Kitsukiya Monaka
A monaka confection crafted by a Japanese confectionery shop that carries on traditional flavors in the castle town of Kitsuki. The manufacturing methods preserved from previous generations remain alive today. Originally known as Kikuchi Seika, the maker 'Kitsukiya' changed its trade name in 2017 to embark on a new beginning. The fragrant glutinous rice shell is generously filled with specially made homemade bean paste, cooked using Hokkaido adzuki beans and natural spring water from a nearby brewery. With every bite, the gentle flavor of the bean paste spreads through your mouth. Its elegant taste, reflecting careful craftsmanship, is highly regarded as a gift. The crisp fragrance of the shell and the smoothness of the bean paste melt together in your mouth. It is a treat to be savored slowly, along with the atmosphere of the castle town.
