Naturally grown early-ripening mandarin oranges (Mune-san)

Located on the middle slope of Mt. Kinpu, a sacred mountain in the center of Kumamoto Prefecture.
Munemi's naturally grown mandarin orange farm is located in a naturally rich area overlooking the Ariake Sea below and Mount Unzen Fugen on the opposite shore.
Due to the sea breeze and abundant sunlight in this area, it has long been a thriving area for citrus cultivation, and the mountain slopes are packed with citrus trees, creating a spectacular sight.



Mr. and Mrs. Muneta started farming in 2015 by renting an abandoned mandarin orange orchard.
During this time, he met Michiaki Ikeda from Gyokuto Town, a pioneer in naturally grown mandarin oranges, and began natural cultivation.
Aiming for a world where nature and humans can live in harmony, the couple pursues natural farming and follows three main principles: 1) safety, 2) security, and 3) deliciousness. They aim to practice sustainable agriculture in order to inherit a bright future and pass it on to the next generation.

Mune's naturally grown mandarins are characterized by their sourness yet strong sweetness.
This is a blessing from the sea breeze of the Ariake Sea and the brilliant sunshine in the west.

In addition, since naturally grown mandarins are grown without the use of pesticides, chemical fertilizers, or waxy soil, the skin can also be used for pickling.
If you dry the peel in the sun and add it to black tea, it becomes "orange tea" with a faint citrus scent.
You can also put it in the bath.

Munemi's naturally grown mandarin oranges are grown bathed in the sun's breath and sea breeze.
Please try it.
