[Rich yokan made with 100% Hokkaido adzuki beans] We use only Hokkaido adzuki beans grown in the bitterly cold climate to create our own "fresh bean paste." The original aroma and richness of the beans come through directly, and you'll know with just one bite that this yokan is in a class of its own.
[Beet sugar for a mellow, crisp taste] Instead of refined sugar, we use Hokkaido beet sugar. The mellow sweetness and richness are combined with Ako salt, resulting in a surprisingly crisp aftertaste, leaving only the lingering sweetness of the yokan. Even if you're not a big fan of sweets, you'll find this refined treat addictive.
[Additive-free, low-fat, 100% plant-based] Made with only red beans, sugar beet sugar, Ako salt, and agar. Contains no fats, oils, or preservatives, and is nearly fat-free. Perfect as an energy replenisher during training, this snack minimizes strain on the body even before and after exercise or during late-night overtime work.
[Ako salt tightens the sweetness] This product is made with a blend of Ako salt that has been sun-aged for two years. The mellow saltiness tightens the sweetness, instantly resetting your palate. This snack is also recommended as a "recovery food" to help you regain focus after work or mountain climbing.
[Smooth texture created by Nikko's famous water] We use underground water nurtured by Nikko's rich natural environment. This clear, soft water gives the yokan a mellow and transparent sweetness, creating a high-quality texture that melts softly on the tongue. It remains light even after a meal! It will overturn the image of yokan as being "heavy."
[75 Years of Artisanal Commitment] Carefully cooked by skilled artisans using a method passed down through the generations, this product brings out the natural umami of the red beans, resulting in a satisfying, deep flavor. It's full of flavor without relying on sweetness. Even if you're not a sweet tooth, this mini yokan is a luxurious treat that can be enjoyed with just one piece.

They fit neatly into a bag or pouch, making them perfect for work, outings, and outdoor activities. You can even put them in the inside pocket of your suit, hiking backpack, or emergency bag! They're a reliable Japanese sweet that you can enjoy on the move.
[365-Day Shelf Life! Disaster Preparedness Energy Salt Yokan] Salt yokan can be stored at room temperature for 365 days from the date of manufacture, making it an excellent disaster preparedness and emergency food.
