Higashiomi Pears
When you take a bite, juicy nectar overflows along with a crisp, crunchy sensation. A clean sweetness spreads through your mouth—this is the Higashiomi pear. Pears are a seasonal taste of autumn grown in Higashiomi City. The warm climate on the eastern shore of Lake Biwa and the fertile soil produce pears bursting with juice. When eaten chilled, their crunchy texture and sweetness are further enhanced. They are wonderful to eat as they are, but also great added to salads or made into compote. Slicing them after chilling thoroughly in the refrigerator makes the sweetness and juiciness even more prominent. It is a delicious treat that moistens the throat during the lingering heat of early autumn. This is the taste of autumn's beginning, delivered by the bounties of Higashiomi.
