Yuzu was the highlight of the talk, as Mr Akira Endo introduced the history, uses, and benefits of the citrus fruit that Kochi is well known for. Did you know that yuzu has almost 1,300 years of history in Japan and China, and that it contains more Vitamin C content than lemons? Guests were also invited to sample delicious juice made from Kochi yuzu. This yuzu juice is manufactured by Malaysia Dairy Industries Pte Ltd (MDI) and is made with yuzu from Kochi prefecture.
