Anpan of the Tesshu Kimura family

[Asunaro] August 6, 2016 09:00

 
 Prior to the meeting between Saigo Takamori and Kaishu Katsu, he alone with Saigo Takamori.
It was Tesshu Yamaoka that I met.

 

Such actions, in Saigo, "I don't need money, don't need honor,"
Those who don't need life are in trouble, but such a person
If you don't have it, you can't achieve it."
It was Shimizu's Jirocho parent who guarded himself, and there is no shortage of topics.
This year is also the 180th anniversary of the birth of Tesshu.

 

 What this iron boat liked was the Kimura family's Anpan.
The sign of the Ginza Main Store (Ginza 4-chome) is also Tesshu Yamaoka.

By the way, I was a little worried about the difference between the Kimura family and the Kimuraya. 。 。
On the Kimuraya Sohonten page, the following is as follows.

 -----
The "Kimura family" is the signboard "Kimura family" written by Tesshu Yamaoka.
It is said to be derived from Ginza Main Store (Ginza Kimura Family Co., Ltd.),
Used as the brand name of products for directly managed stores.

The name of the store that the founder set up in Ginza was "Kimura-ya" and later.
“Kimuraya Sohonten” is a product for supermarkets and convenience stores.
Used as a brand name.
 -----
It seems to be Blanding like that.

 

 Anpan has been made with the same manufacturing method for more than 140 years.
Sakura Anpan is an iron plate, and you can't keep an eye on the seasonal Anpan.

 This is the current area around Ginza and Kyobashi, and the Shogunate has here.
