[Shijo Kawaramachi, Kyoto] I went to Shimizu Ippoen, famous for its matcha espuma shaved ice 🍵

I've been to the Kyoto main store many times, but this time I went to the second store, Kyoto Takoyakushi store, which opened in November 2022!!! ⁡ Orders are made via touch panel and paid in advance, hand the ticket to the staff, and wait for it to be prepared. *If it's busy, it might be better to get a seat first 👀 ⁡ I ordered the following two items! ⚫︎Matcha Snow Ice 1,280 yen The fluffy matcha espuma (mousse-like matcha) melts in your mouth along with the fluffy ice, which is incredibly delicious🫠 The espuma itself is bittersweet matcha, so it's eaten with condensed milk, red beans, and shiratama🍧 ⁡ ⚫︎Hojicha Espuma Latte 550 yen You can also order it hot, and the cold hojicha espuma is on top of the warm hojicha, so I recommend enjoying just the espuma at first, and then mixing it all together and drinking it! ⁡ I went there in December, so there was a Christmas tree decorated as well 🎄 ⁡ ------ 📍Access 👣4 minutes walk from Hankyu Kyoto Kawaramachi Station ⁡ 🕰Business hours 11:30-18:30 *The Kyoto main store closes at 16:30, so it's recommended to stop by after visiting the temples 🙆‍♀️ ⁡ 🍧Price ⚫︎F-Poo Malate (Matcha or Hojicha) 550 yen ⚫︎Snow Ice (Matcha or Hojicha) 1,280 yen *There are also seasonal parfaits! ------ #KyotoTourism #MatchaSweets #ShavedIce #Kyoto #Hojicha
