A list of brand pork from Hiroshima, Japan. We cover Setouchi Rokkokuton from Hiroshima. The article details the breed, feed, upbringing, and where to find it.

The one brand we cover from Hiroshima is Setouchi Rokkokuton, raised by Taiyo Pork Co., Ltd. with integrated production from sow to shipping. The name means "six-grain pork": corn, milo, rice, barley, wheat and soybeans go into an original feed that brings out the pork's natural sweetness and aroma. Starchy grains combined with protein-rich beans and corn are meant to draw out the pork's own umami and richness. Nearby, we also cover Okayama (3 brands), Yamaguchi (4 brands) and Shimane (5 brands).
