The Kyotokan, an antenna shop in Kyoto City (2-1-1 Yaesu, Chuo-ku, Yanmar Tokyo Building 1F), currently sells seasonal products that are typical of spring at the "Sakura, Saita" corner.

First of all, "Kyoto Ikawa Tomasa" Spring Limited Kyoto Sakura Dango ""

Founded in 1884, it is a spring-only product of "Mamemasa", famous for "Goshiki beans". It is said that the cherry leaves were chopped into dumpling dough and finished with a pestle. If eaten, it is not too sweet, it smells of cherry blossoms.

Next, "Kyoyo Confectionery Juvancel" Sakura Raw Chocolate ""

The origin of the name is French, which means "Otome". This is a raw cherry-colored raw chocolate with salted cherry leaves. You can enjoy the smooth mouthfeel and the scent of cherry blossoms unique to raw chocolate.

There are still many other spring-only products, but that's all about what I bought and eaten. Kyoto in spring is also wonderful, but you can also enjoy the taste of Kyoto in spring at the Kyoto Museum in front of Yaesu Exit.
