Hana-ingen (Flower Kidney Bean)
Large, plump beans, perfectly boiled. When you take a bite, they have a fluffy texture and a gentle sweetness that slowly spreads through your mouth. Their magnificent presence is enough to satisfy you with just a single bean. Flower kidney beans are large-sized beans that can only grow in high-altitude areas that remain cool even in summer. They are a specialty product of the Agatsuma region (including Nakanojo Town, Tsumagoi Village, Kusatsu Town, and Nagaoka Village) at elevations of 900 to 1,300 meters. The cool climate causes the beans to grow large, and it is said that the higher the altitude, the larger they become. In particular, the purple flower beans from Tsumagoi Village can sometimes grow to be more than twice the size of those from Hokkaido. Locally, these have been affectionately known as "Kogen Hana-mame" (Highland Flower Beans). Whether served as sweet boiled beans or Amanatto (sweetened dried beans), each bean is a luxurious morsel filled with the blessings of the highlands.
