Umeboshi candy was born from the idea of making Ariheito, which was expensive for the common people of the Edo period, more convenient. Since then, based on the Aruheito technology, black candy, matcha candy, and black tea candy have been produced, and in the Heisei era, throat candy and vanilla milk candy were added. In addition, a series of unscented and uncolored “fruit juice candy” made with domestic fruits has also been introduced, with a total of 11 types of standard products. [What is Eitaro Candy Day] We have been certified by the Japan Anniversary Association to designate October 3rd every year as Eitaro Candy Day. The name originates from the birthday (October 3, 1932) of Eitaro Hosoda, the founder of the main store who introduced Eitaro Ame to the world. Seasonally, it falls on the first day of the 24 solar terms, or “mizu hajime karu” (the first day of water) in the 72 seasons. Mid-Autumn’s “mizu shiruru” refers to the harvest period after the rice fields have been drained of water. Superimposed on the day of abundant fruit It was a commemorative day. 【Eitaro Somoto】 Founded in 1818 (first year of Bunsei era).
