The “Business Exchange Promotion Project Connecting and Developing with Kobe” (*) promotes business exchanges between companies in Aomori Prefecture and Kobe/Kansai, taking advantage of the convenient access of the FDA Aomori-Kobe Line and promoting mutual economic development in both regions. This juice is filled with the passion for apples of Atsuko Nagai, the owner of Hibinos Apple Garden, who I met through “Hibinos Apple Garden”.

You can enjoy all 9 types of apples in 3 months. Atsuko Nagai, a native of Fukushima Prefecture, worked at an advertising company in the Tokyo metropolitan area after graduating from a university in Aomori. I decided to join the Regional Revitalization Cooperation Team because I wanted to do work related to the local community in Tohoku. I came across a call for a local venture development project in Hirosaki, and was deeply interested in a project related to apples, so I decided to take on the mission of increasing the number of apple farmers. Since April 2019, he has been appointed as the “Agriculture Director” who is responsible for efforts to sustain the apple industry. However, I thought that without actually experiencing apple growing myself, I wouldn’t know what the challenges and attractions were, so by chance I rented an apple orchard and “Hibinos Apple Farm” was started.

The feature of this 6-bottle juice 3-month course is that it is categorized by variety. The label uses a design based on the “apple printing plate” that was used until around 1965. There are many ways to enjoy it, such as drinking it chilled as it is, mixing it 1:1 with beer, or heating it up and boiling it with a squeeze of lemon.

◆Hibinos Apple Garden
The origin of Hibinos Apple Garden is “Nest of the Days”. For us, the apple orchard has become a place where we can take a breather, recharge, and start anew. Through the apples and apple juice we grow, we hope to deliver that experience to our customers. At first, we never expected there to be so many apples. Apples with a short season that are difficult to deliver fresh can be delivered in the form of juice. We hope you will find your favorite apple.
