Bamboo

Bamboo たけ Take

Symbolic meaning: resilience and growth, career advancement

Bamboo is a common element in Japanese tea ceremony, gardens, and aesthetics: simple, serene, and imbued with Zen. It is outwardly gentle but inwardly resilient; it bends in the wind but doesn't easily break. With its vigorous vitality, rapid growth, and upward stride, it has been praised since ancient times for its noble character, its ability to ward off evil, and its symbolism of good fortune and blessings.

Things to note:

• In order to preserve freshness and prevent collision, Toukaya wagashi is stored in -24°C freezer after production, and is shipped by Black Cat Frozen Home Delivery.
• Thaw at room temperature for about 40 minutes before eating.
• Jonamagashi is prone to drying and cracking if exposed to the air for too long. Therefore, it is recommended to keep them in the original transparent packaging box during the thawing process.
• Jonamagashi can be moved to a plate in the frozen state, and then covered with the original transparent lid. Just remove the lid before eating.
