A frog jumps in.
Oh!
The sound of the water.

In keeping with the upcoming cherry blossom, our chef Kazuya has put on a special seasonal version of his popular Baumkuchen.
This time he has used powdered cherry blossom petals, which find their way into the artfully rolled layer after layer of handwork.
The sweetness, as always, is contrasted by a slightly acidic sauce made from the fine Umeshu plum wine from Kamoizumi (賀茂泉 梅酒) which we will present for the first time on our new beverage menu in 2021.
Umeshu is a very popular liqueur in Japan. Kamoizumi's Umeshu is a high quality product that this traditional sake brewery makes from high quality organic plums and Junmaishu. The acidity of the plums and the mildness of the Junmaishu harmonize perfectly. This special liqueur is characterized by expresses a ripe plum aroma and has a long finish with salty and mineral notes.
