Ibaraki Prefecture is Japan's number one melon producing region in terms of production area and volume. A wide selection of melons is available for you to enjoy for half a year, with Andes Melon, Quincy Melon, and Takami Melon being shipped from spring to early summer and Earl's Melon from summer to autumn.

Good-quality and tasty Ibaraking is also grown here as Ibaraki's original melon brand.Melon is also another top produce from Ibaraki. Being the number one producer of melons, they offer numerous varieties of sizes and tastes across the seasons. They have the Andes and Quincy varieties, in season from spring to early summer; as well as the Earls variety which are grown from summer to autumn. Their original and notable melon variety worth trying is called “Ibaraking”, short for Ibaraki King. 

Produced particularly around the spring season, what makes Ibaraking stand out is its juiciness, sweetness, smooth texture, and fleshiness. It also grows 10% bigger than usual spring melons and has a relatively long shelf life! It is promoted as giving the ‘taste of spring in Ibaraki’.
