Strawberries of Yamatokoriyama
Take a single, glossy, deep-red strawberry. As you bite into it, a rich sweetness and fruity aroma overflow from the firm flesh—this is 'Kotoka,' the brand strawberry born in Nara. Named with the wish to become 'a new flower adorning the ancient capital of Nara,' this variety was registered in 2011 as a unique cultivar of Nara Prefecture. They are carefully nurtured in greenhouses all over the prefecture, including Yamatokoriyama. The average sugar content is 15 degrees or higher, and it is said that some can even exceed 20 degrees. Its charm lies in its intense flavor, where sweetness and acidity are perfectly balanced. From winter to spring, each berry is like a jewel that graces the dining tables of Nara.
