Historical fact:
Tochi, or Japanese horse chestnut, has long been part of mountain life in Japan. In regions where rice farming was difficult, the nuts of the tochi tree were processed and used as food, especially in traditional mountain villages. The tree has also been associated with traditional wellness culture, and its natural compounds have been studied for their potential circulatory and anti-inflammatory properties.
Flowers and Season
Tochi trees bloom from late spring to early summer, producing large upright clusters of pale flowers. These blossoms appear in forested mountain areas and are an important nectar source for honeybees during the early summer season.
Because Tochi trees grow mainly in mountainous regions, the honey reflects the natural environment of Japanese forests. The harvest depends on the flowering condition of the trees, the weather, and the ability of bees to gather nectar during the limited blooming period.
Our Japanese Horse Chestnut Honey is selected from honey with a gentle floral aroma and smooth natural sweetness. It is filled without heating in order to preserve its original fragrance and soft flavor. Please enjoy the calm and elegant taste inspired by Japan’s mountain forests.
