Oyamazaki Bamboo Shoots
The bamboo groves spreading at the foot of Mt. Tenno nurture the flavors of spring. Oyamazaki bamboo shoots are a soft and aromatic masterpiece, a pride of the renowned bamboo-producing region of Otokuni. Otokuni, which includes the town of Oyamazaki, is a village of Kyoto's bamboo shoots where the cultivation of Moso bamboo has taken deep root. In the well-drained bamboo groves on the slopes, white and tender shoots are grown through a meticulous softening cultivation process involving covering the soil with straw. This area is also known as Mt. Tenno, the stage of the 'Battle of Yamazaki' where Toyotomi Hideyoshi defeated Akechi Mitsuhide, and is famous as the home of the Suntory Yamazaki Distillery. With low astringency and an elegant sweetness and aroma, these Oyamazaki spring delicacies pair perfectly with both simmered dishes and tempura. Please enjoy this seasonal blessing, unique to a land where history and nature intertwine.
