FUN FACTS & TIPS

Cultivating Shinano Pearl plums is a labor-intensive process. The fruit's thin skin makes it susceptible to scratches, and the large fruit can easily fall off the tree. To ensure a high sugar content, the plums are slowly ripened on the tree in challenging natural conditions, such as rain, wind, and high temperatures. This meticulous effort ensures that each plum meets the exceptional sweetness standards of 18 degrees brix and more.

Its delicate cultivation requirements mean that just a handful of producers can nurture these exceptional fruits, with a limited annual production of only 800 pieces. Making them exceptionally rare. They are also heavier than it looks, weighing over 300 grams.
