Togan (Winter Melon) Syrup

Visitors to our shop in Nanjo are very familiar with this syrup. It goes beautifully with yogurt. It's less sweet than honey and so doesn't mask the flavour. Slices of winter melon are stewed in local cane sugar to make a candied winter melon, and this syrup is what remains from this process. Available here or at the shop, Togan syrup is made by our good friends Jahana Kippan in Matsuo, Naha City. For more information on other sweets made by this very special shop, please visit their website at the following link:
