Tagami Bamboo Shoots

A fresh blessing from the mountains that colors Tagami Town in spring. Tagami Town is a famous production area for bamboo shoots, boasting 17 hectares of bamboo groves across its hilly terrain, including Mount Gomado. The rich soil of the mountains, said to have risen 500,000 years ago, produces high-quality bamboo shoots that are fragrant with minimal bitterness or astringency. In spring, the town becomes lively with events such as direct sales markets featuring rows of freshly harvested morning bamboo shoots and bamboo shoot picking experiences. Their soft texture when freshly dug can be fully enjoyed in dishes like bamboo shoot rice or simmered vegetables. Because they have little bitterness, preparation is easy. It is a delicacy unique to Tagami that allows you to taste the arrival of spring. Please enjoy this seasonal flavor.
