MAMEMASA
Kyoto’s Timeless Bean Confection Craft.
Founded in 1884 in Kyoto, Mamemasa has spent over 140 years perfecting traditional bean confections using pure Kyoto spring water, carefully selected ingredients, and time-honoured craftsmanship.
A Legacy of Kyoto Craftsmanship
Rooted in Ebisugawa, Kyoto, Mamemasa began as a bean merchant and soon created its iconic Goshiki Mame—five-coloured sugar-coated beans inspired by imperial hues. “We continue to preserve traditional flavours by using the finest ingredients and passing down the skills of our craftsmen”. – Mr. Noto, Sales Representative
Today, this heritage lives on through a wide range of confections that reflect Kyoto’s rich food culture.
Celebrating Bean Confection Culture
With over 30 varieties, Mamemasa showcases the depth of Japan’s bean confection tradition. Using high-quality beans sourced from regions like Tanba and Kyoto, each creation highlights natural flavour, nutrition, and delicate sweetness—offering a diverse and refined taste of Kyoto. -Mr. Noto(のと)Yasuhide (能登康英), Sales Representative (営業担当)
