About Grass-Fed Ice Cream
The Grass-Fed Ice Cream is a unique delicacy crafted with
Beniharuka sweet potatoes, a variety praised for its extra sweetness. Grown without chemical fertilizers, these organic sweet potatoes absorb nutrients directly from the fertile soil. Their labor-intensive cultivation is reflected in the taste, providing a rich, natural flavor that is both unique and satisfying.
At the
Watami Farm in Bihoro, Hokkaido, dedicated cow farming practices ensure that the dairy cows are raised in a stress-free environment. Here, the farm employs
sustainable, pasture-raised methods to produce nutrient-dense milk, elevating the quality and flavor of their ice cream.
