■ The 'Good Fortune' Passed Down Through the Wings of Cranes

At first glance, you will be captivated by its unique shape. The thinly rolled dough is pinched from three sides, wrapping the sweet bean paste inside, resembling the **'姿 of a crane spreading its wings'**. The Yubesi, reflecting the image of the crane, revered as an auspicious bird since ancient times, continues to accompany scenes wishing for people's happiness as gifts and for celebrations.

■ The 'Exquisite Harmony' Created by Soy Sauce, Sugar, and Chewy Dough

Taking a bite, you will first be enchanted by its surprisingly **'chewy texture'**.

This golden ratio of 'sweet and salty' is the secret taste that Kannoya has preserved.
