Yoru no Ume is Toraya’s signature ogura yokan, named after a poem in the Kokin Waka Shu (Anthology of Ancient and Modern Japanese Poetry), which says, “The darkness of a spring night is ayanashi, the color of plum blossoms is not seen, but their fragrance is hidden.
The night plum with tiger shading design is a store exclusive package available at the Shijo Minamiza store in Kyoto, adjacent to the Minamiza Theater, originally the birthplace of Kabuki. It is a product supervised by Shochiku. This time, in honor of the Kabuki-za’s performance in the Year of the Tiger, it will also be available at the Kabuki-za’s 1st floor Souvenir Shop Kobiki-cho. The Shijo Minami-za store in Kyoto will be able to purchase one at a time, but the Kabuki-za will not be selling them in bulk.
