The Besshi Ame Candy, a top quality delicious sweet milk candy, was named after the Besshi Copper Mine, one of Japan's three largest copper mines. They still make their glucose syrup the classic way in copper kettles giving the candy a simple nostalgic flavor. A set with five different flavors including local Ehime specialty the mandarin orange, green tea, strawberry, cocoa, and peanut makes for the perfect souvenir or snack with your tea. With at least one-week prior appointment you can see the manufacturing process. The attached Hand-made Udon Cho-be offers chewy and slippery texture noodles.

Ehime Areas

Stretched across the northwest corner of Shikoku island, Ehime is a nature-rich prefecture boasting beautiful coastlines and a rural center where mountains play host to 26 of the Buddhist temples that make up the Shikoku Pilgrimage. Matsuyama is home to an original post-feudal castle as well as Dogo Onsen, one of the country's oldest natural hot springs. The northern city of Imabari marks the entrance to the Shimano Kaido, a road that crosses six spectacular bridges and several islands, forming a route between Shikoku and mainland Honshu.
