Peach

桃

A quintessential summer fruit with a short but beloved season. Yamanashi Prefecture ranks first nationally, followed by Fukushima. The basin climates of Kofu and Fukushima are ideal for growing high-quality peaches. As they do not keep long after harvest, enjoy them fully during the season
