Kyuman Honpo Ishidanya

Candy Store
This confectionery is a 10-minute walk from JR Konpira Station and located along the approach to Kotohira-gu Shrine, which is often referred to as Konpira-san. This shop produces and sells “kyuman,” which are a famous Konpira sweet and even supplied to the imperial household. They are popular as souvenirs among tourists as well as worshipers on their way from the shrine. This exquisitely sweet treat is filled with high-quality yellow bean jam wrapped in dough, and it can be enjoyed with tea at the shop. The storefront also sells senbei crackers, manju buns, udon, and other souvenirs. A moxibustion experience is held on the fourth Sunday of every month.

    「灸まん」は「かまど」と共に、琴平の歴史を見てきたのだろうな、と思います。とりわけ美味しいお菓子か?と問われると、答えにくいですが(笑)、きたら必ずお土産に購入するのも確かです。

    金刀比羅宮の表参道に面した店舗でした。店内での飲食も可能で、一寸休憩にも便利そうでしたが今回は土産物調達としました。名物の灸まんを始めとして和菓子系の土産物が並んでいましたが、やはり灸まんとしました。

    灸まんは名物かまどに並ぶ香川の有名菓子なので色々な場所や店で売っているが、折角金比羅山に来たので金刀比羅宮参道において最も古い建築である石段や本店で購入したく、参拝の帰りに立ち寄り購入。お灸の形をした饅頭は中に鶏卵の黄身を使ったパラパラの餡が詰まっており、口いっぱい日本甘さが広がる。
