If you go deep in the mountains, you will find Yuzu that grows naturally, and some areas are designated as national natural monuments because of the beauty of the landscape.

To continue Yuzu cultivation in its natural habitat, Hagi Yuzu is grown in an environment where pesticides do not reach them, so the natural environment won’t be destroyed.

For The Green Pepper We Also Use Precious Domestic Products

Green Yuzu Kosho

Domestic production of chili peppers in Japan is only 200 tons per year, which is less than 3% of the peak (7000 tons in 1963 is the highest).

Against this background, it seems that the chili peppers used in yuzu kosho are often imported from overseas, such as those made in China.

With the strong desire to deliver domestic yuzu kosho, this product uses precious domestically produced green peppers.
