About Yusenpei

Yusenpei (湯せんぺい) is a must-try souvenir from Unzen. It is a slightly sweet, crispy, and fragrant treat made by blending wheat flour, sugar, eggs, baking soda, and the local hot spring water. Resembling a delicate wafer, Yusenpei traces its origins back to the early Meiji period, when it was created as a gift for a local lord who adored the hot springs of the area. With its light, crunchy texture and subtle sweetness, this snack pairs perfectly with tea and is loved by everyone.
