Superior Japanese Green Tea
MAIKO TEA SHOP




From the good old days... rice crackers, green tea candy, konbu (dried kelp), O-mame (baked broad beans)... Please enjoy true traditional Japanese flavour... simple and decent. Unlike many of today's processed snacks with excessive additives, these snacks have an undisguised delicate taste. In addition, they are very healthy!



These broad beans, grown in the grandeur of nature, are dried under natural sunlight for days and then roasted over hot charcoal. Enjoy the genuine taste of broad beans. ('Mame' means beans in Japanese.)

Chako's Comment
These beans may be a bit hard for some people to eat. But beans are very nutritious and as they are especially abundant in protein they are nicknamed "beef of the fields!"
My mother tells me that chewing these beans will help my jaws develop!

Naturally harvested kelp (kobu/konbu) is dried under the open sun and cut into strips for convenience when eating... Konbu is rich in glutamic acid, an amino acid responsible for its unique "umami" taste. This is why such a simple snack can be so delicious. Savor the flavour of the ocean... Perfect for teatime.

 

Chako's Comment
You can really savor the taste of the ocean in your mouth! This snack is my father's favourite - he eats so much at once! At first, it didn't fit my taste... but the unique taste grows on you!

A refreshing sweetness and an aromatic gyokuro flavor produce a harmony in your mouth. 

In Japan, these candies are very popular among banks and insurance companies as a small gift to their customers.

Maccha Milk Candies

Chako's Comment
It's very aromatic - the green tea flavour permeates your mouth!
Sweets are good for quick energy when you're a bit tired. It might be a good idea to keep these candies in your bag.
