All Reviews of Gion Tsujiri "Tsujiri no Sato"

Tsujiri no Sato looks small and delicate. The slender, crispy wafers are filled with matcha cream. When you bite into one, you get the crisp texture of the wafer paired with the rich aroma of matcha, and the two blend together just right. The matcha flavor really stands out, with a light tea aroma and a slightly bittersweet taste. It isn't simply sweet, giving it a complex flavor.

When visiting Gion Tsujiri in Kyoto, in addition to the matcha desserts, I highly recommend picking up a box of “Tsujiri no Sato”! Crispy thin wafers are rolled into small cylinders and filled with rich matcha cream. When you bite into one, you first get the crisp texture of the wafer, followed by a delicate tea aroma. The slight bitterness of the matcha perfectly balances the sweetness, making it very easy to enjoy. Pair it with the tea bags sold at the shop for an afternoon tea that really tastes like Kyoto.

Of course, you can’t miss matcha sweets in Kyoto. This time I tried Gion Tsujiri’s Tsujiri no Sato, and I was immediately drawn in by the rich matcha aroma. The matcha flavor is really noticeable!

The cookie has a firm, crisp texture, and the matcha flavor in the center is also very rich. It has a subtle tea aroma and a slightly bittersweet taste, so it isn’t just simply sweet. The more you eat, the more you notice the matcha aroma.
