Kyoto's New Souvenir "Chobomaru"

A unique, round, cute, and chewy financier drizzled with a rich white bean paste and matcha sauce. To pursue Kyoto's essence, Uji matcha is used in both the financier dough and the sauce.

The concept is "A delicate bite for a geiko's small mouth."

The packaging features a geiko, and the individual wrappers are inscribed with Kyoto dialect words such as "Ooki ni" (Thank you), "Oishiosu" (It's delicious), and "Okibarimasu" (Good luck). This is the birth of a new Kyoto souvenir, packed with Kyoto's charm, special in both appearance and taste!

Please pick it up and try it at the store!

Price (Tax Included): 2 pieces: ¥540, 4 pieces: ¥972, 8 pieces: ¥1,836

Manufacturer: Bitoh Co., Ltd.
