Josuian’s ‘grape daifuku’, available again this year for a limited time only.

2024.07.24

Josuian Corporation will start selling limited-edition Daifuku grapes from Thursday 18 July at 21 company-owned stores and by mail order. These Daifuku grapes have been sold for over 20 years.

Daifuku grapes with a perfect balance of sweetness and sourness.

‘Grapes’, ‘white bean paste’ and ‘rice cakes’. The fruit used for Daifuku must have acidity as well as sweetness, otherwise it does not go well with the mochi and white bean paste. New Pione grapes are used for Daifuku grapes. The fruit is carefully removed from the bunches by hand by artisans and transformed into Daifuku.

The New Pione has a high sugar content of more than 16 degrees Celsius, but the balance of sweetness and acidity is exquisite. The smooth white bean paste has a refined taste that can only be achieved by homemade bean paste, which is made by anko (sweet bean paste) craftsmen with care and attention. And the soft rice cake. The goodness and balance of each ingredient is the reason for the deliciousness of grape daifuku.
