 Yuzus and The Universe of Japanese Citrus

With more than 90 varieties with some almost year round, Japan is that citrus destination you may not be aware of. Citrus orchards shape many territories mostly under the radar, but located in stunning perspective and landscapes that usher you into the rurality of Japan, with plenty of food and secluded cultural experiences inside. Step aside the common trails and put some citrus in your itineraries, starting from Tokyo to way down Okinawa.

Certified Citrus Sommelier of Japan
The Citrus Sommelier certification was introduced in Japan in 2020. It is currently the single citrus sommelier certification system in the world. A citrus sommelier is someone deeply invested in the knowledge and the dissemination of that knowledge to the greater public. 

I am the first non-Japanese holder of the Citrus Sommelier certificate. 

Besides professional trips around citrus in Japan, I organise private tasting sessions everywhere in Japan, including remote tasting experiences with the best seasonal fruits sourced from selected producers.
