(Yup, this is another stocked up review from the beginning of summer.)My boss got it from a Japanese nobility during her trip, but she hates beans. So I got to eat it. (Thanks~!) The bean filling has a slightly sandy texture, and is wrapped in a soft, steamed, cake-like crust. Quite fragrant and natural. No preservatives was used. I suspect it's expired because they are only good for 2 weeks, and a little dry. (My boss was gone for 3 weeks and sick for 1 week after she came back.) The name of this bite size treat means "dropped letter", which refers to an indirect way of sending a love letter in the old days, by crumbling it up and dropping it on the ground in front of the receiver, usually in a different social class with no hope for marriage. The shape of the otosibumi resembles the crumbled up love letter.
