History of Aono

Brief History

麻布 青野総本舗The predecessor of Azabu Aono is the maltose store Aonoya in Tomishima-cho, Kanda. In 1856, Azabu Aono was founded as a Japanese dessert store in Azabu Ichi-bei-cho (now around Roppongi 1-chome station) .

At that time, Azabu Aono was the villas of the nobles (the names of Roppongi were from the places where the villas of Uesugi, Kuchiki, Takagi, Aoki, Katagiri, and Ichiryu were located), and has come this far due to customers' support.

麻布 青野総本舗Our wrapping paper was the map of Roppongi at that time.

Then, in 1887, Azabu Aono moved to the present location, at the time was of Azabu Mikawadai-cho (now Roppongi). In 1950, Azabu Aono reorganized as limited company. Since the very beginning 160 years ago, we have been dedicated to making Japanese desserts and bringing the joy to every guest every day.

The story behind the dessert

The warbler rice cake by Azabu Aono (left photo)

Our japanese desserts are all designed by owners from different generations of Azabu Aono.
Especially the warbler rice cake was designed by the fourth owner Heikurou Aono's brother, Hirayoshi Aono, who was a actor. It was designed for players to eat at orchestra box and wouldn't get dirty.
It was a packaged dessert that two rice cakes filled with red bean paste, sprinkled with soy flour and wrapped in bamboo skin.
The two rice cakes was designed as one-bite-sized in order to avoid messing up the makeup.

"Follow the chirp, follow the chirp, come to Azabu."
(It was a poem by Basho Matsuo when he was strolling in the early spring around Sakurada, Roppongi, Sanhetai and was attracted by the scent of plum and the chirp of warblers.)
According to this poem and the image of a caple warblers sleeping in a bamboo ship, the warbler rice cake was designed.

The hanging axis "Follow the chirp, follow the chirp, come to Azabu." was written Syunsou Machi.

The ingredients of the warbler rice cake are as follows: red bean paste from Hokkaido, fine glutinous rice flour from Japan, soybean powder from Hokkaido.
