This cherry-picked pork luncheon is made from pigs living in a natural environment with mineral-rich soil and clean air in Aso, Kumamoto Prefecture. As the pigs are not given any antibiotics when raised, their meat has a higher content of iron and magnesium than ordinary ones. Thus, the premium pork luncheon provides appealing meat aroma and flavour. Mixed with the special mayonnaise, it makes this omusubi a delicious choice for adults and children.

Aso of the Kumamoto Prefecture is surrounded by mountains on three sides. It boasts of a warm, pleasant climate and includes a grassland inside the world’s largest caldera. The soil there is fertile and favours agricultural development. In 2013, it was declared a Globally Important Agricultural Heritage Systems site. Aso is also blessed with abundant mineral-rich groundwater resources, and is known as the Home of Springs.
