Koyasan Sasamaki Anpu
When you unwrap the bamboo leaf, a pure, gentle aroma wafts up. This is Sasamaki Anpu, a souvenir from the gates of Koyasan. Carefully wrapped in bamboo leaves, this sweet treat features a chewy texture and a gentle sweetness. Its greatest charm lies in its simple, refreshing flavor, truly reminiscent of Koyasan where the culture of Buddhist vegetarian cuisine (shojin ryori) lives on deeply. The dough, lightly infused with the scent of bamboo, can be enjoyed refreshingly even during the hot season. As a memento of your visit to Koyasan—the sacred site founded by Kobo Daishi—we invite you to try it. It is a flavorful confection unique to this temple town that pairs perfectly with green tea. Please enjoy the wonderful aroma at the very moment you unwind the bamboo leaves.
