Alisan Hunza Apricots use apricots from the Hunza region of Pakistan that have been allowed to fully ripen on the tree.
They are rich in beta-carotene.
These apricots are cultivated without the use of pesticides or chemical fertilizers, harvested only after ripening on the tree, and then dried. You can enjoy a mellow flavor and the abundant sweetness of the fruit.
They are unbleached and contain absolutely no coloring agents or preservatives. This dried fruit is gaining attention for its high beta-carotene content.
**About the Producer: OrganoBotanica**OrganoBotanica is a family-run farm that continues to uphold the traditions of the Hunza Valley in Pakistan. They wait for the fruit to ripen on the tree before harvesting. The apricots are grown in mineral-rich soil without the use of chemical fertilizers, pesticides, or additives.
**About Alisan**Alisan Co., Ltd. began introducing natural foods from overseas to Japan in 1988. It started when the founders began importing granola and peanut butter for their own consumption; as word spread among friends living in Japan, the business grew into its current form.
The company name "Alisan" comes from Mount Ali (Alishan) in Taiwan, the home of the representative's partner, Fay. Mount Ali is a high-altitude location with a harsh natural environment, yet it is a place of great beauty. Furthermore, the people living there have a deep appreciation for history and nature, work hard, and are warm-hearted, living in a community where everyone helps one another. The company was named "Alisan" out of a desire to create a place like the strong and kind Mount Ali that they love.
Currently, Alisan handles approximately 300 items. The lineup is based on organic and vegetarian foods for daily use. Additionally, to broaden dietary options and increase enjoyment, they offer many "ethnic foods" that may be unfamiliar in Japan.
