Yoron Island Brown Sugar Yabure Manju
With its skin slightly torn to reveal a glimpse of the filling inside, the simple and warm appearance of Yoron Island's 'Kuroto Yabure Manju' is incredibly endearing. Yoron Island is a small island floating at the southernmost tip of Kagoshima Prefecture, near Okinawa. Under its warm climate, sugarcane grows, and the brown sugar produced on the island has long been known as a specialty. This manju is made by steaming each piece individually using plenty of the island's brown sugar. The intentionally unrefined, handmade texture evokes the generosity of island life. It features the rich depth and profound sweetness unique to brown sugar, along with a somewhat nostalgic, gentle flavor. It is a treat that encapsulates the entire bounty of the southern island.
