Taishi Mikan

The Unshu mandarin oranges grown in Taishi Town, a place with historical ties to Prince Shotoku, are renowned for their sweetness. Over 10,000 mandarin trees spread across south-facing hills. 'Kami-no-Taishi Kanko Mikan-en,' one of the largest scale orchards in the Kansai region, opened in 1968. These prideful oranges are certified as 'Osaka Eco-Agricultural Products,' having reduced pesticides and chemical fertilizers to less than half of the usual amount, and have been selected as a specialty product of Naniwa under the name 'Osaka Mikan.' Freshly picked mandarins are juicy and sweet-tart. Mandarin picking from autumn to winter attracts many families every year. This is a blessing unique to Taishi Town, grown while basking in plenty of sunlight on south-facing slopes.
