This creative confectionery combines tankan, a citrus fruits grown in Kagoshima Prefecture, and rich chocolate. Tankan citrus is characterized by its rich sweetness and juicy flavor. While the fruit is widely grown in Kagoshima, it is still not well known in other parts of Japan. The company is making this confectionery with the hope of conveying the greatness of tankan to a wider people. The chocolate has rich flavor but not overly sweet to allow you enjoy the refreshing taste of the citrus fruits that lingers in your mouth.
Enjoy it chilled in the refrigerator or warm it in the microwave for melt-in-your-mouth texture of the chocolate filling. The aroma of the citrus fruit is highly fragrant and the texture that changes with the temperature is pleasing to the palate. The shape of the chocolate resembling a bunch of tankan fruit makes it also visually appealing.
Designed to appeal to a wider audience, both in Japan and abroad, the package features writings in both kanji and English. In addition, the company has also paid careful attention to the package material, shape and colors so that it can be reused as a small box for storing items.
