Kasama Chestnuts
When you bite into a peeled, fluffy, split chestnut, you experience an elegant sweetness and a smooth texture. Even the aroma that drifts through your nose feels somewhat graceful. Kasama chestnuts are an autumn delicacy known for their high fragrance and deep sweetness. Ibaraki Prefecture ranks first in Japan in both chestnut cultivation area and shipment volume. Within the prefecture, Kasama City boasts the largest cultivation area in the country, making it truly a town of chestnuts. Chestnut cultivation has continued in this land since the Meiji era. The temperature difference between day and night, combined with well-drained volcanic ash soil, provides a blessed environment that nurtures plump and fragrant nuts. Whether steamed to be fluffy, roasted for a savory aroma, or made into elegant confections, it is a flavor Kasama is proud of that makes you crave it irresistibly when autumn arrives.
