Kuri to Watashi is a luxury Japanese chestnut Mont Blanc specialty store newly produced by "Kuriza", a popular Mont Blanc specialty store in Kyoto City.
The "Strawberry Mille-feuille Mont Blanc", made with Tochiotome strawberries from Tochigi Prefecture, is a creative Mont Blanc that uses strawberries to enhance the rich flavor of Japanese chestnuts. The base of the Mont Blanc is a crispy mille-feuille. A super-fine paste made from chestnuts and strawberries is squeezed on top of the cake, creating layers of fragrant air, creating a fluffy, airy texture and the crispy texture of a mille-feuille. Other treats include the "Golden Thread Mont Blanc," made with generous amounts of premium Tamba chestnuts; the "Matcha Mont Blanc," a creative Mont Blanc made with Uji matcha; and innovative desserts using Japanese chestnuts, such as the "Japanese Chestnut and Matcha Shaved Ice" and the "Tamba Chestnut and Seasonal Strawberry Parfait." Like Kuriza, Kuri to Watashi also crafts its Mont Blancs right before your eyes. Enjoy the mellow aroma of the chestnuts as you watch the Japanese chestnut paste transform into a super-fine Mont Blanc. Look forward to "Kuri to Watashi," a premium Japanese chestnut Mont Blanc specialty shop produced by Kuriza, where you can see, taste, and enjoy.

Mont Blanc Menu


Strawberry Mille-feuille Mont Blanc

This is a creative Mont Blanc made with Tochiotome strawberries from Tochigi Prefecture. The crispy mille-feuille base is layered with an original paste that is full of aroma, so you can enjoy a crispy texture that is also fluffy and airy. *Limited to 30 servings per day


"Golden Thread Mont Blanc"

This Mont Blanc maximizes the flavor of the sweetness and rich fragrance of the "king of chestnuts," Tamba chestnut, by making it into an extremely thin Mont Blanc. *We also have the "Golden Mont Blanc" made with domestically produced Japanese chestnuts, priced at 1,870 yen (tax included).


Matcha Mont Blanc
Price: 1,870 yen (tax included)

Made using Uji matcha, produced locally in Kyoto, this dish brings out the mellow flavor of domestically grown Japanese chestnuts.
The paste has been adjusted to be as thin as possible. The aroma of the two ingredients spreads the moment you put it in your mouth.

The inside of the Mont Blanc is made up of sponge cake, chestnut cream, meringue, fresh cream, and rice crackers.
The moist texture of the sponge cake and the crunchy texture of the meringue bring out the flavor of our proud Japanese chestnut paste. Only the "Strawberry Mille-feuille Mont Blanc" has mille-feuille filling inside the Mont Blanc.
