The Story Behind Kyoho King
The Origin
Introduced from Japan and carefully established in Australia, Kyoho King represents a rare lineage of authentic Japanese Kyoho grapes.
The Journey
The journey began in 2000, led by renowned grape scientist Dr Rod Bonfiglioli, with the introduction of a premium, virus-free Kyoho selection under strict quarantine and scientific protocols. After extensive testing, the original mother vine was successfully planted in Australia in 2003, forming the foundation of Kyoho King today.
What It Means Today
Grown with care and guided by Australia’s world-leading biosecurity standards, Kyoho King grapes are valued for their rich aroma, juicy texture, and naturally balanced sweetness—offering a true taste of traditional Kyoho, preserved for a new generation.
