The Secret Story of Koyama Cheese
Koyama Cheese is the product of over three year's work and comes to you with our total satisfaction. Over that period, the sole purpose of our tireless pursuits was exquisite taste.
In about 2007, almost by accident, we embarked on a plan to develop the ideal cheese cake. But just as we seemed to be on the verge of realizing our goal, we were suddenly faced with the harsh reality that, due to some import problems, we threw out all of the recipes we had developed and started all over again with new materials.
After three long years of work, we finally arrived at a solution ? a blend of cheeses from France and Hokkaido. The first was made by the famous Kiri company and the second was an extremely fresh cream cheese from the Donan region of Japan's most northerly island. With these two ingredients, we arrived at a souffle crust that is notable for its rich body and a deeply milky, slightly tart flavor.
With a single bite, the excellent taste fills you with a fluffy sense of happiness ? like a special gift from the vast and fertile ground of Mother Hokkaido. Behind es Koyama's third speciality is long period of trial-and-error and the challenging spirit of our patissiers, whose incessant need to develop new sweets has now paid off.
