In Suikoen, Uwajima, Okinawa the highest quality Soft-shell Turtle in the world is bred. Suppon from Suikoen is the most common Soft-shell Turtle served at Kyoto’s upscale Japanese-style restaurants. It is the best because here they raise the Soft-shell Turtles carefully for a period of 3-5 years, without using any artificial chemicals for the pool water or feed. During the harvesting period of the Soft-shell Turtle all the internal organs are removed and only the crucial restoring and beautifying components remain. These integral elements are delicately turned into a fine powder by a millstone in an effort to minimize change of its temperature. Although the millstone method takes more time and work than large-scale mechanized processing, a higher quality Soft-shell Turtle powder can be obtained for Suppon Capsules in this way without losing its vital and active nutrients.
In Suikoen, great care is taken to breed Soft-shell Turtles under conditions close to the natural environment. The pool water has water drawn from the underflow water of the Iwamatsu River, which is a very clear and clean stream. Other examples of the attention to quality and proper breeding care can be found below.

The features of Soft-shell Turtles bred in Suikoen Suppon is bred in an outdoor pool which is close to the natural environment Allows Suppon to hibernate between November and March like they would in the wild, without unnecessary feeding The Soft-shell Turltes are fed only special homemade feed made of fresh local fish and vegetable products The pool is cleansed for 3-months through sun-drying, without the use of disinfectants.(At other farms, soft-shell turtles are normally kept in a hothouse to artificially accelerate growth.) |
Breeders in Suikoen allow their Soft-shell Turtles to hibernate in their natural cycle from November until March. They also raise them to a proper marketable size over the period of 3 years At other farm locations, Soft-shell Turtles are normally raised without hibernation under the accelerated breeding system. As the development and nutrition of 1-year old soft-shell turtles are insufficient, breeders from Suikoen only make available Soft-shell Turtles that were raised over a 3 year period for commercial harvesting.
The Soft-shell Turtles are fed with home-made feed made of fresh small fish caught in the Uwa Sea, along with local carrots, and odorless radish leaves.
 |
After taking a Soft-shell Turtle out of the pool, it is moved to a water tank and kept under 17 Celsius for 2-3 weeks. This is done during a period in which the Soft-shell Turtles engage in a period of fasting or food abstinence (hibernation). This guarantees flavor quality and consistency.
|
 |
A Soft-shell Turtle is prepared by keeping only the shell and meat. The internal organs are discarded. (At other farms, the whole Soft-shell Turtle is normally used, therefore, the feed and some potential contaminants still remain in the stomach.)
|
 |
After dissection, a Soft-shell Turtle is dipped with herbs. Then, it is smoke dried with cherry tree for 48 hours.
|
|
|
The smoked turtle is ground into powder by a millstone. As there is only a little thermal change, nutrients are kept intact and active as this process avoids destruction. At other farms, a Soft-shell Turtle is normally processed by a machine after its frozen. Therefore, nutrients are destroyed which degrades the benefits of Suppon.
