What is Inamino Melon?

Inamino Melon is grown in Inami Town, Hyogo Prefecture by local farmers who are part of the Melon Club. These melons undergo strict temperature and water management during their cultivation, ensuring they meet the high standard of a sugar content of 13 degrees or more before they can carry the Inamino name.

This year, we are thrilled to offer five different pre-order options:

- One green melon
- Two green melons
- One red melon
- Two red melons
- A pairing of one green and one red melon

Treat yourself or a loved one to this luxurious set and experience the unique aromas, textures, and flavors that Inamino Melons have to offer.

Why Choose Inamino Melon?

You may be wondering what makes Inamino Melons so special. The climate in the Hyogo region is ideal for growing melons, characterized by warm temperatures and lower rainfall. The farmer's careful attention to irrigation and thermal control results in beautiful melons that boast a sugar content above 13 degrees. This commitment to quality is why you can only purchase these melons through JA Town.

Exceptional Flavors

- Green Flesh Melon

The green variety features a refreshing aroma and a refined sweetness, complemented by a smooth, juicy texture that makes it a perfect dessert for summer. Its light taste is perfect for hot days.

- Red Flesh Melon

In contrast, the red melon's velvety texture is rich and sweet, with a fragrant aroma sure to enhance your palate. Packed with β-carotene, the bright orange flesh is not just delicious but also nutritious.

Certified Quality

Nestled along the Seto Inland Sea, Inamino Town benefits from an environment well-suited for melon cultivation. The natural pollination by bees and the practice of restricting each vine to only one melon enhances the fruit's flavor concentration. Additionally, Inamino Melons have received the Hyogo Recommended Brand certification for their commitment to environmentally friendly farming practices and exceptional quality. All products undergo strict inspections to ensure no pesticide residues remain.

A Highly Anticipated Seasonal Delicacy

Every season, the demand for Inamino Melon is incredibly high, and many local customers eagerly await its arrival. Sales frequently see melons flying off the shelves at direct sales stores, making pre-orders essential.

Enjoy at the Perfect Time

To savor Inamino Melon at its best, it is crucial to identify its ripeness. Generally, it is ready to eat within four days to a week after arrival. For optimal enjoyment, store the melon in a cool, dark place and check for ripeness by gently pushing on the bottom. Once it gives slightly, it's time to enjoy! Cooling the melon in the refrigerator for a few hours will enhance your tasting experience and slow the ripening process.

For your convenience, each purchase comes with a leaflet providing guidelines for the expected ripeness timeline, ensuring you know how to enjoy your Inamino Melon to the fullest!
