   Kyotango's Environment

   Kyotango City is home to the largest sand dune area in Kyoto Prefecture, known as the Tango Sand Dunes. Sand dunes are not only well-drained, but also have the characteristic of cooling quickly when the temperature drops. This is used to adjust the moisture content of fruit and concentrate its sweetness. The large temperature difference between day and night also contributes to the fruit's high sugar content. Furthermore, the sea breeze that blows in from the Sea of Japan is rich in minerals. This sea breeze gives the fruit a unique flavor, creating a deep taste that is unique to this region.
