Haraguchien Hakata Langue de Chat Yame Gyokuro Matcha White Chocolate Cookie

Haraguchien Hakata Langue de Chat Yame Gyokuro & Matcha is a beautifully crafted Japanese gift confection from Haraguchien Fusouan — a long-established tea house in Fukuoka with deep roots in the tea-growing region of Yame, one of Japan’s most celebrated green tea producing areas.

This is not a product from a sweets maker who happens to use tea: it is a tea specialist’s vision of what a tea-flavored confection can and should be.

Each piece pairs a delicate langues de chat cookie with a smooth white chocolate filling.

The cookie itself is baked with a blend of two distinct Yame teas selected by Haraguchien’s own tea masters: gyokuro, Japan’s most premium shade-grown green tea, prized for its extraordinary umami depth and natural sweetness; and matcha, ground from Yame tea leaves, contributing a vivid green fragrance and a clean, gently bitter character.

Together, they create a cookie that is subtly complex — fragrant, faintly earthy, and layered with the kind of quiet tea flavor that can only come from using the real thing in the right proportions.

Sandwiched inside is a layer of creamy white chocolate, whose mellow sweetness and soft dairy richness complement the tea’s gentle bitterness in a pairing that feels both refined and effortlessly pleasant.

The langues de chat format — light, airy, with a clean crisp snap — carries the flavor beautifully without overwhelming it.

Individually wrapped and presented in an elegant flat box, Hakata Langue de Chat is a perfect Fukuoka omiyage (souvenir gift) — the kind of thing you find at airports and stations across Kyushu, and the kind that actually lives up to its beautiful packaging.
