<\/a><\/p>\nAnother feature of this shop is its specialty muskmelon store.<\/p>\n
Muskmelon were originally cultivated from imported seedlings from Europe and the United States in an agricultural site in Shinjuku Gyoen, designed to promote farming by means of fruit production. Thanks to this breeding program, Japan\u2019s own original melon, the sweet muskmelon was born. These muskmelons, who have their roots in Shinjuku just like Shinjuku Takano, are another of the fastidiously maintained points of Shinjuku Takano.<\/p>\n
The muskmelons available at Shinjuku Takano come from Shizuoka prefecture, a land famous for its muskmelon production, thanks to its ample sunlight and great soil conditions. These melons are selected based on qualifications from every angle: their sugar content, maturity, shape, and more. When purchasing a muskmelon, there is a guarantee from a profession attached to it that attests to the perfect timing to eat that particular melon, which assures customers of its quality.<\/p>\n
If you would like to enjoy muskmelon for yourself but aren\u2019t able to take one home with you, then head to the Takano Fruit Parlour on the fifth floor. There you can relish the deliciousness of Japanese muskmelon freshly cut on its own or alongside other fruits in a delightful parfait.<\/p>\n
