[2024] A Taste of Kyoto at Kyoto Porta, an Underground ...
The second souvenir video of Kyoto features five confectionary souvenirs available around Kyoto Station, recommended by Leaf, a local gourmet magazine in Kyoto.
We recommend both classic and new stores that are readily available in the Kyoto Station area.
[Umezono oyatsu is located at JR Kyoto Isetan. The popular "Mitarashi Butter Sandwich" is lined up in the showcase, along with two types of steamed bean-jam cakes, an assortment of popular snacks, and other lovely sweets. The "An-no-Hanazou" (bouquet of red bean paste), a bouquet of Japanese sweets made with a soft dough and filled with various kinds of red bean paste, is a perfect gift for celebrations or for those who have taken good care of you. The "Mitarashi Butter Sandwich" is a cookie accented with a thick sauce of Mitarashi. The best time to eat the cookies is when the mitarashi has melted.
