Nakayama’s Jam

3.5

Nakayama’s Jam is a long-established store specializing in jam located on the old Karuizawa Ginza Shopping Street in Karuizawa Town, Kitasaku County, Nagano Prefecture. The founders of this shop which was established in 1905 were taught how to make jam by a foreign missionary. Their most popular jam is the blueberry jam with the delicately refreshing taste of highland blueberries. The strawberry jam with lots of whole strawberries is also popular. In addition to these they have more than 30 types of jam made from typical Shinshu ingredients such as kyoho grapes, apricots, and rhubarb. They also sell non-additive jams and pickles.

Visited this shop after so long. It looks that varieties of products are less than before.I bought the bottle of the apricot in the syrup. It was just ok and not so outstanding. The price is high...
いまや旧軽銀座の御三家では？！

Reviewed : 2022.03.08

旧軽銀座の目玉と言えば、ほかの方も書かれている通りの御三家のひとつだと思います。老舗のジャム屋さんで看板も昔と変わらない感じで、20年ぶりに旧軽銀座に訪問してもすぐにわかりました。コロナ禍のためか外から見る限り、商品展示が少ないように見えて残念でした。いつまでも存続して頂きたいお店のひとつです。
専門店というほどではない

専門店というほど独自性のあるジャムがあるわけでもなく、味のほうも試食する限りでは普通で、さほど意味のあるお店という感じではないです。価格がそれなりに高いわりには、コストパフォーマンスのいい品質ということもないので、あえてお土産にするほどでもないという印象です。
