Okaki Loquats

Large-sized loquats herald the arrival of early summer. Okaki Town boasts the number one loquat production area in Fukuoka Prefecture. Loquat cultivation in Okaki Town is said to have begun during the Meiji era. The sea breeze blowing from the Hibikinada coast and the warm climate produce juicy, sweet loquats. This town, which possesses the beautiful scenic spot of Sanrimatsubara, is ideal for fruit cultivation as it is less susceptible to frost damage. It is also affectionately known as 'Takakura Biwa.' The glossy, orange-colored fruit is highly attractive due to its gentle sweetness and juiciness. It attracts popularity every year as a gift. Because the season is short, it is a juicy, luxurious fruit that you truly want to taste during those moments of early summer.
