Tanba Dainagon Azuki Yokan
A glossy and elegant yokan made using premium Tanba Dainagon azuki beans. The large beans, which do not break apart during cooking, create both a beautiful appearance and a deep flavor. Tanba Dainagon azuki is a prestigious variety of bean; historical records show that in 1705, the lord of the Kameyama Domain presented them to the Shogunate and the Kyoto Imperial Palace. It is said that the name 'Dainagon' (a high-ranking court title) was given because the beans 'do not split even when boiled,' likening them to a court noble who escaped ritual suicide (seppuku). As a rare, large-grained bean produced in only small quantities nationwide, it is crafted into a yokan perfectly suited for tea ceremonies. With a smooth melt-in-the-mouth texture and the dignified flavor of azuki beans, this is a prestigious Japanese masterpiece from Tanba that invites you to savor its profound taste, perfect as an accompaniment to tea.
