From Our Farmer in Iyo, Ehime

In Iyo, we grow mandarins with plenty of sunshine and sea breeze from the Seto Inland Sea.
We harvest each fruit at its best moment - when acidity and sweetness are in perfect balance.
"I want to deliver the excitement of autumn's arrival." That's our farmer's wish.
Size and shape may vary as they are grown naturally. That's the nature of farm-direct fruit.
