Yamamoto Apple
These apples from Yamamoto Town are nurtured by the sea breeze from the Pacific Ocean and a relatively mild climate. The history of apple cultivation in Yamamoto Town dates back to around 1914. Production increased following the decline of the once-thriving sericulture industry, and the area's development as a production hub accelerated rapidly about 60 years ago. Today, it boasts one of the highest production volumes in Miyagi Prefecture, with over a dozen varieties being cultivated, including Fuji, Kougyoku, Akiemi, and Shinano Sweet. Nurtured by an ideal growing environment and the passion of local producers, these apples are highly regarded both within and outside the prefecture for their exceptional flavor. As one of the three major specialties alongside strawberries and surf clams, these are unique apples grown in a seaside town.
