Dada-cha-mame Uemon
"Dadacha-mame" is an edamame (green soybean).
Japanese notation "日本橋まんじゅう(桜ミルク)"
“Eitaro Souhonpo” in Nihonbashi is a very long-established business founded in 1818. The milk manju made by “Eitaro Souhonpo” is called “Nihonbashi manju”. This time, I bought a cherry blossom milk bun.
The package design is quite lovely, depicting the old Nihonbashi bridge in cherry blossom-colored scenery.
Koshi-Ann (sweet red bean paste) is packed tightly without any gaps and has a faint aroma of cherry blossoms. It seems that the flavor of cherry blossoms is mixed into the Koshi-Ann.
It has a soft and flaky texture, a rustic sweetness, and a nostalgic taste. The thin skin of the manju was also carefully doughy with the tradition of a long-established shop.
