In the afternoon of this year's first midsummer day in Tokyo, we had the first shaved ice this year at the tea room at the Tsuruya Yoshinobu Tokyo store on the first floor of 1-chome COREDO Muromachi, Nihonbashi Muromachi.
Yoshinobu Tsuruya is a long-established Kyoto confectionery founded in 1803 in the Edo period (1803).
Uji Shigure Matcha, condensed milk, shiratama, vanilla ice, and azuki on fine shaved ice melts in your mouth and makes you happy.
The tea served is also said to be Ippodo Saho's Iribancha in Kyoto, and this also really enhances the sweetness.
It is a matcha parfait vanilla ice cream, matcha ice cream, fresh cream, matcha jelly, azuki, middle skin and all-star footsteps
Azuki is very elegant, and the compatibility with ice cream is exquisite.
Tsuruya Yoshinobu seems to have a family lesson that has been handed down from generation to generation, and one of them is said to be "Yakimonotsukuru ni material, time and effort".
This family lesson (philosophy) has been protecting Tsuruya Yoshinobu's "Noren" for more than 200 years, so I thought while eating too delicious shaved ice.
I'll come again.
