Produce in Japan (such as the rare white strawberry) can sometimes sell for extraordinary prices in Japan that make travelers do a double take. A soon released to be released luxury tomato juice will do the same, but the makers argue for good reason. Agricultural developer and consultant OSMIC is releasing an award winning high-end tomato juice that clocks in at 10,000 yen ($93 USD as of time of writing).
"OSMIC Tomato Juice first" has a sugar content of 15%, but uses no added sugar or water. The juice is made from OSMIC mini tomatoes, winners of the Vegetable Sommelier Summit Special Tomato Grand Prix. OSMIC cultivates the mini-tomatoes in a special soil that they say contributes to a higher sugar content and umami than usual, with a taste similar to mangoes.
Reservations are currently available for the high end tomato juice in Japan if you're curious enough (or really love tomato juice), with delivery expected in July.
