Hirogawa Town Mandarins

The sweetness of the sun on hills overlooking the Kii Channel—Hirogawa Town is a warm town that plays its part in the Arida mandarin production area. The Arida region is known as Japan's number one mandarin-producing area, with a history of over 450 years. The terraced fields on the hills facing the Kii Channel are blessed with sunlight and good drainage, nurturing sweet mandarins. In Hirogawa Town, mandarins bathed in plenty of sea breezes and sunlight hang in clusters across the terraced fields from autumn to winter. These are intensely sweet mandarins nurtured by the warm climate. When you peel the small fruit that fits in your palm, juice overflows with a rich sweetness. The thin skin peels easily by hand, making them easy to eat—an indispensable taste of Kishu to enjoy while sitting around a kotatsu in winter.
