Yubari melons are not just any orange-fleshed melon grown in Japan. They aren’t even any melon grown in Hokkaido. They must be grown in the town of Yubari. Furthermore, the season of these melons is very limited, they are only ripe from late May to early August. The number of fields used to grow Yubari melon is also limited, as, after a single season, the field cannot be used for another crop until another year has passed.  Finally, they cannot be stored for long, and they must be eaten very quickly after ripening, making it difficult to transport them out of Hokkaido, let alone internationally. ”. 

The Yubari Melon is a cantaloupe melon. The inner flesh is orange and nectar sweet, with a succulent, melt-in-mouth texture, flooding your taste buds with juicy goodness. The outer skin is green and covered in a fine white mesh. The pattern tells us its flavor: the finer the mesh, the sweeter the fruit.
