福岡県·銘菓
Hakata Torimon
When you break open the golden-brown, moist crust, the white bean paste flows out smoothly. The moment it enters your mouth, the aroma of milk and butter wafts through, and the smooth bean paste melts on your tongue. This is the most popular confection representing Fukuoka's Meigetsudo, founded in 1925. It is a so-called 'Western-style Japanese confection,' incorporating Western ingredients like milk and butter into the tradition of Hakata wagashi. The name is derived from 'Torimon,' the procession that marches through the streets during the Hakata Dontaku festival. Its quality is internationally recognized, having won Gold Awards at the Monde Selection for nineteen consecutive years. It is delicious even when chilled and pairs well with both tea and coffee. Please enjoy this classic Fukuoka souvenir.
