A quick recap of our recent trip to Asakura Fukuoka, Japan 🇯🇵

We had the opportunity to spend time with one of our trusted suppliers, visit a local grape farm, and see firsthand the care and attention that goes into every step—from harvest to packing and shipping.

These visits remind us that great products begin with great people, strong relationships, and a shared commitment to quality.

More from our Japan journey to share soon!

Roasted slowly, its pale flesh deepens into something almost caramel — a sweetness that unfolds gently, unhurried. Grown in the volcanic soils of southern Japan, the Beni Haruka was cultivated not for yield, but for depth of flavour.

Today, we brought them to the floors of Fujiya on Clark Drive. To everyone who stopped for a taste, stayed curious, and asked questions — thank you. Every taste carries a story.

The Beni Haruka is now available at Clark Drive location.

China’s most celebrated pear has arrived.

Yuluxiang - 玉露香梨, “Jade Dew Fragrant Pear” - grown in Xixian County, Shanxi, where pear cultivation traces back over 2,000 years.

This is the variety China’s pear industry officially recognizes as its finest. Bred across three generations of research at Shanxi Agricultural University, it carries the aromatic depth of the Korla Fragrant Pear and the crisp, clean texture of the Xuehua Snow Pear.

Thin skin. Almost no residue. A fragrance that earns its name.

The loquat has a 1,000-year history in the Sichuan Basin. The Chinese call it p**a - named for its resemblance to a traditional lute. Small, golden, and grown in clusters on the slopes of Longquan Mountain east of Chengdu, where the basin’s enclosed climate builds sugar slowly through the season.

Firm orange flesh. A flavour between plum and cherry - concentrated sweetness with a clean acidic finish. One of China’s most celebrated spring fruits, rarely seen outside the region.

Not the kumquat you know.

The Crisp Honey variety from Rong’an, Guangxi comes from a single mutant tree discovered in 2007 - seedless, paper-thin skin, no bitterness. Sugar levels above 20 Brix. It snaps when you bite it and dissolves before you chew.

At the premium grade, each fruit is individually wrapped by hand - closer in presentation to a gold-foil chocolate than a piece of citrus.

The Atlantic coast of Nova Scotia stretches nearly 7,500 km - and the cold, tidal waters off its shores are what give snow crab its particular character.

Caught in the Gulf of St. Lawrence and along the Scotian Shelf, these crabs spend years in near-freezing water. The result: dense, sweet leg meat with a clean brine that warm-water shellfish simply can’t replicate.

They arrive live, once a week.

18°N, 109°E - and it shows.

Hainan Island’s latitude places it squarely in the tropics, but its elevation and sea winds pull the sugars slowly, giving pineapples grown here a complexity that warmer, faster harvests cannot replicate. The flesh is dense without being fibrous. The core, rather than a woody impediment, becomes a seam - something the fruit is willing to part with. You pull, not cut.

It is a small thing, perhaps. But small things tend to be the most revealing.

In season now

廣西 kumquats (廣西). Hainan pineapple (海南). Shanxi pear (山西). Sichuan loquat (四川).

Four regions. Four growing conditions. One brief window where they all arrive at once.

The Sichuan loquats are the rarest find in this shipment — a short season, and most of it never leaves the region. The kumquats are at their peak now, before the rind softens. The pears from Shanxi’s high plateau carry a crispness that doesn’t survive long after harvest. The Hainan pineapple has already been through more sun than most fruit ever sees.

We receive daily shipments, but we’re always happy to share what arrived most recently — even yesterday’s.

All of it is moving through our warehouse quickly.

This is the season.

Grown under the desert heat of Sonora, harvested before the season turns. ☀️

Mexico’s northwest has been quietly producing some of the continent’s finest watermelons for generations - the state of Sonora in particular, where the arid climate and long sun hours drive the kind of concentrated sweetness that the fruit is supposed to have.

These mini seedless come in at 4 to 6 lbs - compact enough to finish in a sitting, with the deep red flesh and thin rind that signals a melon grown in the right conditions at the right time.
