Tohoku Region, Japan’s Apple Producer<\/h2>\n

“An apple a day keeps the doctor away.” Healthy and nutritious apples are one of the most popular fruits in the world. Japanese apples are known for their large size and sweetness.<\/p>\n

Apple growing is best in a cool region with low rainfall. In Japan, the Tohoku area in particular is famous for apple cultivation. The top producer is Aomori, followed by Iwate, Akita, and Yamagata.<\/p>\n

Fall-Winter is the Tohoku Apple Season<\/h2>\n

In Japan, a number of apple varieties appear on the market throughout the year. However, from September to January you will find apple picking offered at many farms.<\/p>\n

World Famous Fuji Apples, Green Orin Apples, and Crunchy Tsugaru Apples<\/h2>\n

Many types of apples are cultivated all year long in Japan, but the following three Tohoku-grown apples are the most popular.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nHalf of Japan’s fruit production is of the internationally-renowned Fuji Apple. This fruit has a nice balance of sweet and sour flavors and a tasty texture. It is juicy and filling. You can find Fuji Apples throughout the year but their season is November through December.<\/p>\n

\"\"
\nThe most popular green apple in Japan is the Orin Apple. It has a refreshing aroma and a sweet taste, with low acidity. Orin Apples are available year-round but they are in season from October to November.<\/p>\n

Tsugaru Apples are slightly tough but also juicy, and are known for their crunchy bite. They contain a delicious balance of sweet and sour flavors. You can enjoy these apples from August to October.<\/p>\n

Color and Weight Determine Taste<\/h2>\n

Choose an apple that has full color and shine, as an apple with a green bottom is not yet ripe. Hold the apple in your hand and feeling its heaviness is another point in figuring out the tastiness of the apple.<\/p>\n

Tohoku’s Delicious Apple-Based Products<\/h2>\n

Many tasty apple-based items, like apple cider and apple-based confections, are also sold in Aomori and the Tohoku region. When you come to Tohoku, be sure to try apple picking and some of these delicious specialties!<\/p>\n
