The clear taste derived from soft water without any off-flavors brings out the individuality of the ingredients. The ice, carefully shaved by artisans, melts softly the moment it enters your mouth, leaving a gentle aftertaste that melts quietly rather than a coldness that rings in your head. All fillings like bean paste and jelly are homemade, and we calculate the balance of texture, aroma, and sweetness precisely to lead to the optimal finish for each cup. The shaving is truly a 'blueprint of ice.' It is served as a completed dish without any waste. It is handled by the master of the shaved ice world, Yasumasa Era. Having created numerous masterpieces, he has faced tropical ingredients and created a new cup. Okinawa-exclusive shaved ice: Two signatures born from tropical ingredients.
