Tamura no Ume
Tamura no Ume is a famous confection produced by Shoeido, a long-established shop in Ichinoseki. Named after the Tamura family, the former lords of the Ichinoseki Domain, it is said that it had the honor of being presented to the Imperial Family in 1928. Its adorable shape, reminiscent of a plum blossom, consists of plum paste wrapped in gyuhi and finished by wrapping it in a red shiso leaf. The main ingredients—plum fruit, glutinous rice, and shiso—are strictly sourced from local Ichinoseki. With a single bite, the chewy texture of the gyuhi, the refreshing aroma of shiso, and the sweet and sour flavor of the plum spread throughout your mouth. There are two varieties: 'Densho' (coated in sugar) and 'Kenjo' (uncoated), making it an elegant, representative confection of Ichinoseki that is also highly appreciated as a gift.
