Ponkan Orange    Report I will think what on earth a ponkan orange is. Anyway various citrus fruits are in a southern country. I who seldom eat do not know which is which. I am likely to forget, if a note is not made even if it eats once. Although written as a specialty of Kochi this time, it is said that Kagoshima is quantity-of-production No.1 of Japan in practice. A ponkan orange is small in it being unexpected. It is a size like a small mandarin orange. It is not a steamed-filled-dumplings type like a mandarin orange, and has a tall round form for a while. It is such touch out of which the head has come for a while like DEKOPON. Although there was no smell outside, if the skin is stripped off, there will be the scent of a southern country. When it eats, it is a taste also similar to an orange. It is sweet and easy to eat. It ate lightly and disappeared immediately. It seemed to be in inside about a cave, if it sees from outside. But, the fruit is choked up closely in practice. I regard a "Tankan" orange as having been such a taste.   Japanese : Ponkan A harvest term is from the end of November to December. It stores for one month and will ship in February from December.   / Top > Kochi   (C) Japanese Noted Foods 2007
