According to the results of the company’s survey, the awareness of “Eel Pie,” Hamamatsu’s famous confectionery, was very high at about 89%, while the awareness of the series product “Eel Pie V.S.O.P.” was only about 17%. Therefore, in hopes of making its appeal more widely known, a mini-size version will be released to commemorate the 30th anniversary of the birth of Eel Pie V.S.O.P.
V.S.O.P. is a grading system based on the degree of maturity of the brandy, meaning “a very fine, mature brandy with a beautiful color.
While the dough is usually made by mixing water, this product is made with cream, milk, macadamia nuts, and “secret sauce” with brandy as the finishing touch, which gives it a more premium taste.
