Mikan (Mandarin Oranges) from Uki
When you pick one up, it feels heavy in your hand, and once peeled, a sweet aroma fills the air. As you take a bite, the juice bursts forth, followed by a pleasant acidity. Uki City is one of Kumamoto Prefecture's leading citrus production areas. Centered around Misumi Town, facing the Yatsushiro Sea, and Shiranui Town, known as the birthplace of Dekopon, various citrus fruits including Satsuma mandarins are cultivated. The reflection of sunlight from the sea, the mild climate, and well-drained slopes produce fruit with a perfect balance of sweetness and acidity. Another charm is that you can enjoy seasonal flavors over a long period as different varieties come into season. Uki's citrus fruits are grown under plenty of sunshine. These juicy morsels are a joy for winter dining tables or as gifts.
