Description
Earl’s Melon is one of Japan’s classic luxury netted melons, prized for its rich fragrance, refined sweetness and exceptionally smooth, melting texture. In Ibaraki, it is especially known as an autumn melon, bringing a different seasonal expression from the spring and early-summer varieties that dominate earlier in the year.
This TFD selection comes in an impressive Extra-Large 5L size, approximately 1.8–2.2kg. Its substantial size gives the melon a striking presence, while the characteristic Earl’s aroma and soft, juicy flesh make it a particularly indulgent late-season melon.
It is grown in Ibaraki, Japan’s No.1 melon-producing prefecture by both cultivation area and production volume. Ibaraki has held the top position for 27 consecutive years and accounts for roughly a quarter of Japan’s melon production. Its long melon season runs from spring through autumn, with Earl’s Melon taking centre stage from summer into autumn.
Serve & Store
- Ripening: Keep in a cool place away from direct sunlight. It is ready to eat when the base develops a slight give when gently pressed.
- Serving: Once ripe, chill for around 2 hours before serving. Cut just before eating to enjoy its fragrance and smooth, juicy texture at their best.
