Hyuga Natsu

Hyuga Natsu introduction

Hyuga summer is a citrus native to Miyazaki prefecture, and is a specialty fruit tree that Miyazaki prefecture boasts the largest production volume in Japan. In the Bunsei era (1818-1829), which is the end of the Edo period, it was discovered as an accidental seedling in Soi adjacent to Jogasaki, Akae-mura, in the former Miyazaki-gun (now Miyazaki City). It contains nutrients such as vitamins and minerals in a well-balanced manner, and is a popular citrus fruit that can also be ingested in dietary fiber by eating fluffy white skin (albedo) and pulp together. The pulp has a strong acidity, and it is an ideal citrus that tastes just right when eaten with the sweet white cotton part and has high nutrients. When you actually eat it, it's sweet, and the sourness and juiciness of the yellow fruit combine to create an excellent balance. In addition, the pleasant aroma is also rich, and a refreshing finish spreads in your mouth forever.
