YOHKAN sweet bean jelly is one of the most popular and classic confections in Japan. KURI Japanese chestnut which is known as an autumn delicacy is lavishly included in our YOHKAN. AN bean jam, which is the main ingredient of YOHKAN, is the most essential ingredient of WAGASHI traditional Japanese confections. YOHKAN is uniquely firm yet smooth and is served like cake. This is available for autumn season only.
This exquisite treat is made by first taking great care to thoroughly remove the astringency from the chestnuts. The chestnut paste is carefully strained and blended with large, whole chestnuts that have been simmered repeatedly to absorb the sugar syrup.
HOMARE translates to “honor.” Only carefully selected Suki Chestnuts can be transformed into this luxury confection with extreme care by hand. The entire process is truly a labor of honor. Suki Chestnuts are grown in Suki, Kobayashi City, Miyazaki Prefecture. The harsh morning and evening cold envelops the deep mountains, and the gentle sunlight provides warmth during the day. By enduring this extreme temperature fluctuation, the chestnuts store sugar as a means of self-protection, imbued with a surprisingly rich sweetness. These Suki Chestnuts are carefully selected and crafted with great care. This product, made with a commitment to quality ingredients, is a masterpiece that allows you to fully enjoy the flavor of chestnuts.
Combining premium, climate-sweetened Suki Chestnuts with standard-setting craftsmanship, this seasonal KURI YOHKAN is a fat-free, naturally sweet luxury. Indulge in the rich, smooth, and authentic taste of a true Japanese autumn masterpiece - available only for a limited time.
