We Tried the Specialty Cashews from Mamejin in Kurakuen [Nishitsu Gourmet]

There’s a cashew nut specialty shop near Ikari Supermarket in Kurakuen.

They also set up booths at events such as those held at Hankyu Department Store, so some of you may already know them, but their only directly operated shop is the one in Kurakuen😁

This time, I bought some carefully crafted cashew nuts and fava beans from 『豆仁』 in Matsuo-cho (*^^)v

Beans I Bought at 『豆仁』

Top right: Pink Pepper Fava Beans… The pepper gives them a nice spicy kick, and the balance with the crispy fava beans is just right (*^^)v These would be perfect with beer♪

Bottom right: Beni-imo Cashew Nuts… Crispy cashews with a gently sweet beni-imo flavor Our boss isn’t big on sweets, but even he could eat these! If you like sweets, they’ll taste only lightly sweet

Center: Mixed Nuts… This mix includes cashew nuts, pumpkin seeds, sultana raisins, black soybeans, raw walnuts, corn, goji berries, and almonds. You can enjoy a wide variety of flavors, so it’s one of the shop’s popular items.

Top left: Matcha Cashew Nuts… A different flavor from the beni-imo one. The gentle bitterness of matcha spreads through your mouth!(^^)!The secret behind their crisp texture is written in 『豆仁』’s point No. 4 in the “Lastly” section

Bottom left: Cashew Nuts… The shop’s top specialty! They use cashews from Vietnam, the world’s leading producer. They travel there directly to purchase only the highest “A” grade nuts. That’s why they have a creamy sweetness and rich flavor (#^.^#)

The ones I bought this time were 65 grams for ￥480 before tax.

Other prices look like this ↑ The more you buy, the better the deal(^^)

Inside 『豆仁』

The stylish “gray cans” shown in the photo are apparently limited-edition storage tins, with only 100 available♪

They’re made like tea tins, so the contents don’t get damp〜

As you’d expect, there are looooots of beans lined up (*^^)v

You can also have them made into gifts💖

I always buy some to take with me when I visit my father’s family home. There are so many flavors, and both adults and kids love them♪

Besides beans, they also have things like Vietnamese coffee.

I got to try a sample, and even though it was lightly roasted, it had a solid richness♪ It was very easy to drink and delicious〜

They also had premium high-cacao chocolate! Only 11 left… I wanted to try the true deliciousness of cacao^^;

When you buy this coffee and chocolate, a portion is donated to children in Vietnam (*^^)v

By the way, this chocolate is named “AZZAN.” The name apparently carries the meaning of “where and how each one is made?” and “from A to Z, Z to A. You can understand everything.”

Lastly

The owner of 『豆仁』, Nakamura-san😁

He said he has no plans to open more directly operated shops in Japan, and is looking overseas, saying, “Maybe I’ll open one in Vietnam or New York〜” (*^^)v

From Nishinomiya to the world〜!! How exciting!

He also told us lots about his carefully selected cashew nuts(^^♪

People have long said that beans are good for you, but when they’re this delicious, you feel like you could eat them every day (#^.^#)

How about enjoying them with tea or as a snack with drinks? (^_^)v
