Japan Loquat (biwa) 日本枇杷

Delicately sweet with a refreshing hint of citrus, Japanese loquat—known as biwa—is a beloved early summer fruit in Japan. Its smooth, golden-orange skin encases tender, juicy flesh that offers a gentle balance of sweetness and acidity, making it both elegant and easy to enjoy.

Carefully selected for quality and freshness, these loquats are best enjoyed simply—peeled and eaten fresh—to fully appreciate their subtle fragrance and refined flavor.

In Japan, biwa is often cherished as a seasonal delicacy, enjoyed chilled as a light dessert or paired with tea. Its soft texture and mild sweetness make it appealing for all ages.

Peel the skin and remove the seeds before eating. Enjoy on its own, in fruit salads, or as a refreshing finish to a meal.
