Seven specially cultivated apples from Japan’s Hokkaido Prefecture sold for 100,000 yen (approximately $625) at the year’s first auction in Hakodate. Sold under the “Nanamitsuki” brand, the apples set a new record compared to last year’s auction. A wholesale company representative described their taste as similar to honey, while producers said this year’s crop was larger and in better condition. Japan regularly holds auctions for premium fruits, with buyers often using their purchases for promotional purposes.
