八旗農園桃直売所
Your final destination is a well-known orchard in Kinokawa, home to the prestigious “Arakawa no Momo” peaches—one of Japan’s most celebrated summer fruits. Grown in the warm, fertile climate of Momoyama Town in Wakayama, these peaches are prized for their elegant sweetness, soft texture, and rich, fragrant juice.
Here, you’ll enjoy a hands-on experience by picking 3 peaches directly from the trees to take home. In addition, you’ll receive 1 extra peach as a souvenir, allowing you to take home a total of 4 peaches (approx. 1 kg). While the exact variety—Hakuho or Hakuto—depends on the day’s harvest, both are premium white peach types known for their exceptional flavor. Please note that the variety is selected by the orchard and cannot be chosen by guests.
