◆ Product Introduction: "Kurofune Harbor Perry's Lemonade"

It is said that when the Black Ships led by US Commodore Perry arrived in Uraga in 1853 (Kaei 6) during the Bakumatsu period, "carbonated lemonade (lemon-flavored carbonated water)" was part of their drinking water (Source: Yokosuka Tourist Association / Yokosuka Keizai Shimbun).

This product, "Kurofune Harbor Perry's Lemonade," was created with this "lemonade of origin" as its motif.

It features a special lemon paste made with lemon juice and pulp, layered with the refreshing aroma of lemon thyme and the gentle sweetness of honey, creating a flavor with a well-balanced tartness and sweetness. Furthermore, it is wrapped in a cocoa dough inspired by the Black Ships and baked moistly, making it a refreshing treat perfect for early summer.
