Hello everyone! 😊
I'm Keko, an online staff member.
As temperatures rise like summer before the holiday season in Japan, we are experiencing sweaty days one after another.
This time, I'd like to introduce the seasonal limited menu at the Nakamura Tokichi Ginza Store Café. It's the popular menu item "Chagoromo" from the grand menu of Nakamura Tokichi Ginza store, which will be available for a limited time in a summer version.
Even those who are surprised by the visual and taste of the regular "Chagoromo" may be taken aback by the cute round ice that fits snugly in the lacquered vessel.
Some may think, "Just ordinary shaved ice?".
But the limited edition "Summer Chagoromo [Tea Coat]" conveys the essence of the season that cannot be conveyed by looks alone.
It's wrapped in a special matcha bean paste that allows you to enjoy a pleasant aftertaste that can only be obtained from hand-picked grinding tea leaves.
The freshly kneaded kuzu mochi, made with high-quality Yoshino kuzu, is prepared upon ordering.
The texture is like a jiggly jelly chilled with ice water.
Create a big mountain with fluffy ice like cotton snow. And then, pour the special matcha syrup over it.
As you progress through the ice, the appearance of the kuzu mochi will make you feel as if you've received a reward.
Since this is a limited-time menu, when you visit the Nakamura Tokichi Ginza store, please be sure to try it out.
