Meyer Lemon (Kiho)
In the warm lands at the southernmost tip of Mie Prefecture, citrus fruits with mellow acidity are grown. These are the Meyer lemons of Kiho Town. A natural hybrid of lemon and orange, Meyer lemons are characterized by their gentle acidity and low bitterness. Kiho Town is a major production area alongside the neighboring Mihama Town; together, these two towns account for approximately ninety percent of domestic production. The warm climate, which sees almost no snow even in winter due to the influence of the Kumano Sea, produces lemons with a rich aroma. Processed into juices and sweets, they are a delicacy that can be enjoyed even including the peel. Please try incorporating this refreshing fragrance into your daily life. They are exceptional when made into honey-soaked lemons or lemon cakes. Please enjoy the aroma nurtured by the warm lands of the southernmost tip.
