Yakushika Cuisine

"Yakushika" is a wild deer that inhabits Yakushima Island. The Yakushika, which grows by eating a wide variety of plants, has been called "Chigusa" among local hunters since ancient times and has been treated as a panacea. Yakushika meat is a superfood rich in iron and minerals, and it is not only healthy but also delicious with no gamey taste and juicy, truly a natural delicacy!
