The sweet trail of sweet and fresh tomatoes filled the air. Vine of tomatoes dangled from the plant mostly ripened and full of colour. I collected a container from the counter and I could not wait to make my first pick. I was selective, but every tomato looked as good as the other. It made choosing real hard. I varied my picks between the yellow and red tomatoes. After spending a long time taking my picks I gave them a quick rinse and popped one in my mouth. It was absolutely amazing, sweet, juicy and had a nice crunch to it. The yellow tomatoes were just as sweet.

Japan is renowned for their sweet tomatoes and they have definitely lived up to it. I had planned to use them in a salad, but it was hard to stop eating the moment I had one of them in my mouth. The farm was situated atop a mountain and the scenery was stunning. 

This trip has to be one of the most fruitful tomato picking trip.
