■ Collaboration between Uji tea and seasonal ingredients. Seasonal tiramisu set

In the popular Ujicha Tiramisu series, new flavors perfect for autumn and winter, Matcha Mont Blanc flavor and Hojicha apple cinnamon flavor, are now available.
An autumn / winter limited tiramisu set realized by researching the combination of ingredients that enhances the taste of tea.

Matcha Mont Blanc / Hojicha Apple Cinnamon

■ A luxurious combination of chestnut and matcha, matcha Mont Blanc flavor

A generous amount of genuine chestnut paste with astringent skin is used. The lower layer of matcha cream has a higher matcha concentration than regular matcha tiramisu so as not to lose the flavor of chestnuts.

In addition, the fresh cream sandwiched between the upper chestnut paste and the lower matcha cream layer smoothes the mouthfeel of the chestnut paste and increases the richness of the entire tiramisu. It has a very rich seasonal taste.

■ Apple's texture and cinnamon scent, roasted green tea apple cinnamon flavor

I mixed a generous amount of dice-cut apple with mascarpone cream. The crispy texture and fruity flavor of apple with a thick texture and the roasted green tea cream in the upper row go well together. In addition, the cinnamon powder sprinkled on the top accentuates the taste.
A highly complete and confident tiramisu with a well-balanced taste.

■ The tea used is only home-grown tea from Wazuka, the main production area of Uji tea.

Of course, only home-grown tea is used. We use carefully selected tea leaves so that you can enjoy the rich and high-quality taste of tea.

d: matcha will grow and sell tea in Wazuka-cho, Kyoto, a tea-producing region that produces about 40% of Uji tea, and will also focus on developing tea sweets to propose new ways to enjoy Uji tea. I have put it in.
