Ozeki “Amakara no Sekijuan” Special Sake-Man Soft Serve, Special Sake-Man Soft Serve in a Rice Flour Cone, and Sake Manju

Special Sake-Man Soft Serve ¥380 (tax included)
Special Sake-Man Soft Serve in a Rice Flour Cone ¥400 (tax included)

This soft serve is made by blending sake manju🍦

The rice flour cone comes in red and white colors. It was apparently created with an image of Japan in mind during the Tokyo 2020 Olympics🇯🇵

The soft serve itself isn’t pure white, but more of an off-white color.

The first bite feels very much like classic soft serve! As you keep tasting it, you start to pick up a subtle “sake-man” flavor.

The gentle sweetness of the sweet bean paste is so comforting🤗

The rice flour cone has a crunchy texture.

I tend to spill things a lot when I eat, but this waffle cone doesn’t crumble all over the place, so it’s the perfect solution!!

By the way, the “Affogato” we had in a previous food article also uses this sake-man soft serve.

Sake Manju, pack of 6 ¥713 (tax included)

These are “sake manju,” also used in the sake-man soft serve, made by kneading Ozeki’s daiginjo sake into the sweet bean paste🍶

With many sake manju, sake is apparently only added to the outer dough, but Ozeki’s sake manju are made by adding sake from the stage where the bean paste is cooked.

Both the dough and the bean paste are moist, with a rich aroma of Japanese sake

Inside the Cafe at Ozeki “Amakara no Sekijuan”

There are several tables toward the back after you enter the shop.

This kind of Japanese-style atmosphere is so relaxing.

Of course, there’s also a sake section.

There’s also a vending machine where you can sample sake😆 You can taste six kinds of Japanese sake for just 100 yen♪
