Kamishiroame , a specialty of Gonin Hyakusho Ike Shoten, founded in the Kamakura period.

When you mention ‘Gonin Hyakusho Ike Shoten,’ this is definitely it! It’s the famous Kamedai Ame, a specialty of Konpira, that has been sold since the founding in the Kamakura period. This Kamedai Ame is traditionally cracked and shared with close ones, bringing good fortune from the visit to the Kotohira-gu Shrine. Despite its high strength, the candy is easily soluble in water, and when you put it in your mouth, the sweetness and the scent of yuzu spread, slowly melting away. It has a truly simple and rustic taste.
