Raised in a clean environment on carefully made house-blended feed — a top-quality brand pork from Nagomi Town, Kumamoto.
Hinomoto Buta is a Japanese brand pork (meigara-buta) from Nagomi Town, Tamana District, Kumamoto Prefecture, managed by AndSaiki Co., Ltd. Breed / crossbreeding: Hybrid.
Hinomoto Buta, carefully raised by Saiki Farm in Nagomi Town, Tamana District, Kumamoto Prefecture. A brand pork born from thorough commitment to creating an environment where pigs can grow healthily in the nature-rich land of the northern prefecture area. At Saiki Farm, the thinking of not a ‘pig farm’ but a ‘home where pigs are the main residents’ is cherished — a clean rearing environment and fresh air are always maintained.
Receiving the bounty of Kumamoto’s four seasons of nature — raised slowly to 180 days of age — the inherent sweetness and rich flavor of the meat are drawn out to the maximum. For the feed, an original self-made blend formulating crushed corn and kinako (roasted soybean flour) is used — devised with fine effort so nutrition is firmly absorbed. This commitment to feed is a major decisive factor for the mellow, aromatic meat quality with gentle, appropriate sweetness. Furthermore, by giving nanobubble water infused with ultra-fine bubbles as drinking water — careful consideration is given to stress reduction in pigs as well.
Such devoted accumulation produces a fine-quality fat that melts in the mouth. Even after heating, the pork remains moist and soft — from the fat, a sweet, elegant aroma rises the moment it is grilled.
Renowned for being delicious even for people who dislike pork — also boasting a popular lineup as Kumamoto furusato nozei return gifts. Diverse products are available including spare ribs, pork loin, shoulder loin for ginger stir-fry, and house-made wieners and sausages — perfectly suitable as gifts as well. Please do enjoy at your table this top-quality brand pork representing Kumamoto.
