Yoron Island Brown Sugar

Here lies a pure sweetness nurtured by the sun of a southern island. Yoron Island is a coral island located at the southernmost tip of Kagoshima Prefecture, in the far south of the Amami Islands. This Yoron Island brown sugar is made by boiling sugarcane, grown under the strong subtropical sunlight and sea breezes, using the island's traditional methods. Because the sugarcane juice is slowly boiled down and solidified, this brown sugar retains a rich sweetness not found in white sugar, along with an abundance of minerals such as calcium and iron. When taken directly into the mouth, its intense flavor makes the scenery of the island suddenly unfold before you. It is a natural blessing unique to Yoron Island, perfect both as an accompaniment to tea and as a secret ingredient in cooking.
