About Kasama's Chestnut


Ibaraki Prefecture holds the distinction of being Japan's top producer of chestnuts, boasting the largest cultivated area and harvest volume in the country. The cultivation of chestnuts in this region began around 1897, and Kasama City, in particular, is recognized as a prime chestnut-producing area. Its climate, characterized by mild temperatures and significant day-to-night temperature differences, along with volcanic ash soil that ensures excellent water retention and aeration, contributes to the growth of incredibly delicious and fragrant chestnuts. Additionally, the variety of chestnuts cultivated here is impressive, with reports suggesting dozens of different types are grown.
