By the way, "Freshly baked Uji Matcha cheese tart " is on sale at the head family Pablo store until July 14th. I would love to try it as a matcha fan, but I haven't had a chance to go to the store ... Yakimoki said. FamilyMart's "Matcha Cheese Tart" was released just before that! I didn't want to eat this, so I ran to the nearest FamilyMart!

When you open the package, you can see the matcha cheese tart that fits comfortably in the tray. The freshly baked Uji matcha cheese tart at the Pablo store is about 15 cm in diameter, while this one is about 9 cm in diameter. It's just the right size to eat alone.

Peel off the film on the top, cut it, and look inside, and you will see a beautiful layer of matcha sauce, matcha cheese dough, bean paste, and tart dough from the top. By the way, there is no white ball.

First of all, the matcha sauce that is fully applied to the top is so smooth that you can drink it! Even though it is so light that I wondered if I ate it now, the astringency and umami of matcha remains in my mouth after swallowing.

The matcha cheese dough below it has a mouthfeel like a fromage cake that melts quickly. Even though it is fluffy, the bittersweetness of Uji matcha is tightly packed! I want you to stay on your tongue forever without disappearing so quickly ...!

And below that, there is a relaxed bean paste. With a modest sweetness that is a step back, it further enhances the Japanese taste. I personally think that the author who likes azuki beans could have added more bean paste to Ogura, but I think this balance is just right to complement Uji matcha.

When this is spread in one go, the crispy fragrant tart dough, the melting matcha sauce and the fluffy matcha cheese dough, and the soft and sweet azuki beans overlap each other, creating a quartet of taste and texture that plays a beautiful melody ... !!

God, Buddha, Pablo ...!
God, Buddha, Pablo ...!

Of course, it is not comparable to the "freshly baked" Uji matcha cheese tart sold at the specialty store Pablo, but at this price, I bought it for dessert after every meal for about a month. You can eat it! I am very satisfied with the fact that it has a solid texture that can be shared by two people.

The taste of Pablo that you can easily buy at your local FamilyMart. Please give it a try!
