Setoka


Setoka is a crossbreed of Kiyomi, Encore, and Marcotte, with a high sugar content of 13-14 degrees and a distinctly sweet taste. It is characterized by its high sugar content of 13 to 14 degrees, and its sweetness is outstanding. The texture of Setoka melts in your mouth, and its juicy flavor fills your mouth with delight.

Its sweetness can be felt directly due to its low acidity, and it has been described as "the richest and sweetest citrus fruit". It is popular as a sweet, juicy, high-end citrus, but it is a labor-intensive variety to cultivate.

The Setoka tree has numerous sharp thorns, making it extremely difficult to cultivate, and it is said to be harder to grow than other citrus fruits. Because of its low production and limited distribution, it is a valuable citrus that is difficult to obtain even when it is in season.


The melt-in-your-mouth texture and rich, fresh aroma of Setoka pulp are carefully handcrafted by Eirakuya's confectioners.

The outside is crispy, while the inside melts in the mouth, and the aroma of the fruit can be enjoyed as it is.

This seasonal amber sugar combines Eirakuya's traditional techniques with seasonal citrus fruits.

Although seemingly a relative combination, both are food colorings that go well with "tea and rice," which are indispensable for Japanese people.

Each has its own signature products, such as "Kohaku," an agar candy that is particular about its beauty, and "Hitotokuchi Shiitake," a tsukudani made from domestically grown log shiitake mushrooms.
