Hassaku (Innoshima)

When you peel the skin, you find flesh packed tightly and firmly. Upon taking a bite, a refreshing sweetness is followed by a sharp acidity and a subtle bitterness. This pleasant aftertaste is the true charm of Hassaku. The plump flesh has a bursting texture. It is not overly juicy, making it a pleasure to eat segment by segment. In fact, this Hassaku originated in Innoshima. Legend has it that everything began with two trees that grew within the precincts of a temple in Taguma-cho, Innoshima, during the Man'en era. The original trees are still carefully enshrined today. A citrus fruit born from the islands of Setouchi that you'll want to encounter in early spring. A single segment is enough to brighten your mood.
