Buntan fruit from Kochi prefecture

Yesterday I ate this Buntan fruit. It was my first. Although in Japan it is called Buntan, I think more people are familiar with Pomelo (or the scientific name Citrus maxima), a fruit with originated from South East Asia countries such as Vietnam and Philippines.



This particular Buntan was produced in Kochi prefecture and is called Tosa Buntan. Kochi prefecture and partsof Shikoku are known to be the producers citrus in Japan especially mikan.
