"Mamegen" is a shop that sells a variety of bean confectionery with various flavors. I decided to go to the main store in Azabujuban!


The store is packed with various flavors of bean confectionery! All of them are unique and attractive products, and I'm almost likely to buy them. We asked the clerk to recommend it, and this time we selected "bean taste" containing 10 kinds of mini packs, "curry beans" which is popular among young people, and "mozzarella almond" which is a limited product. I tried to eat and compare them.

■ Enjoy various flavors

First of all, from "bean taste" where you can enjoy various tastes. The price is 1,000 yen per bag (excluding tax, the same applies below). It seems that the flavors included differ depending on the time of year. This time, there are 10 kinds of otoboke beans, plum peanuts, white sesame soybeans, shrimp beans, coffee nuts, matcha, kinako soybeans, maple cashews, black pepper beans, and yogurt.



Otoboke beans are the most popular flavor of Mamegen. Contains rocky shore-flavored beans consisting of three types: "green laver," "chopped seaweed," and "shrimp." It has a crispy, crispy and light texture, and the fragrant peanuts have a nostalgic taste. It's a taste that everyone can enjoy!


Ume Ochika is a bean confectionery that you can enjoy the refreshing flavor of plum blossoms. It has a slightly pink color and looks cute. The acidity is moderate, and the scent of plums that spreads in your mouth the moment you chew is the best! I want to enjoy it with green tea ♪


White sesame soybeans are an irresistible dish for sesame lovers who have a strong sesame flavor. The aroma of white sesame and the bubble wrap texture make it addictive.


Shrimp beans are bean confectionery that you can enjoy the richness of sakura shrimp and the slight sweetness. It seems that it uses shrimp powder native to Kanbara, Shizuoka prefecture, where the unique scent of sakura shrimp is firmly trapped. The crunchy and light texture makes it hard to stop eating!


Coffee nuts are a Western-style flavor with a savory coffee flavor. The size of the beans is one size smaller than the others, but you can fully enjoy the taste of coffee with just one grain. It's delicious that you can eat like a snack ♪


Matcha is a product in which Uji matcha is used abundantly on a batter wrapped in beans. It is seasoned with Kagawa's specialty "Wasanbon sugar". Enchanted by the rich aroma of matcha that spreads softly and the elegant sweetness. Each grain has a flavor that makes you want to relax and enjoy it!


Kinako soybeans are bean confectionery that has a slightly sweet kinako flavor. Kinako with a mellow sweetness is evenly used in the batter that wraps the beans. Healed by the flavor of kinako that gets stronger every time you chew.


Maple cashew is a product in which cashew nuts are entwined with fragrant maple syrup. The crispy and fragrant nuts go perfectly with the sweet syrup! It's a flavor that feels like a pinch when you're a little hungry.


Black pepper beans are bean confectionery accented with the spicy spiciness of black pepper. Broad beans are used, and you can enjoy a crispy and crispy rice cracker-like texture. It looks like you'll be happy with the evening drink!


Yogurt has a yogurt flavor that resembles a nostalgic candy. The sweetness is followed by a strong acidity that makes it fluffy. Is it good for your child's snack?

■ Very popular with young people!

"Curry beans" seems to be a flavor that is especially popular with young people. The price is 350 yen. The crispy fried broad beans have a spicy curry flavor. You can enjoy the richness and sweetness of authentic curry at the same time. Eating response is also ◎!

"Mozzarella Almond" is a flavor that can only be purchased at the Azabu Juban Main Store, the Tokyo Skytree Town Solamachi Store, and online. The price is 350 yen.
