New this year is the "Shinku no Misuzu," which has a sugar content of 20 degrees and is said to be sweeter than a melon. This strawberry is native to Chiba Prefecture and is a rare variety that cannot be found in supermarkets due to the small number of producers. It is also called the "black strawberry" because it is a darker crimson color than other strawberries.

The color, aroma, flavor, and sweetness were all rich, with almost no sourness and a surprisingly strong sweetness.
"Shinku no Misuzu" can only be enjoyed in the new greenhouse that was added this year. *Depending on the growing conditions, there may be days when it is not available.

The balance of sweetness and sourness is perfect, with the ideal fruit sweetness.
Compared to other varieties of white strawberries, it has a much better balance of flavor. The seeds are pink and it looks cute too.

You can also change the flavor by adding toppings such as "condensed milk" or "chocolate"
First, after enjoying the strawberries as they are, you can change up the flavor by adding "condensed milk" (250 yen) or "chocolate" (500 yen, sold at the attached food truck).

"Chocolate" is not too sweet and has a slightly bitter taste, so it goes well with sweet strawberries.
