KAGOSHIMA CHICKEN
Kuro Satsuma Dori
Kuro Satsuma Dori is a black chicken that was developed by the Kagoshima Prefectural Livestock Experimental Station since FY 2001 as the new black of Kagoshima, following Kagoshima black pork and Kagoshima black beef. Development took six years to FY 2006 with the first official shipments commencing in FY 2011.
The Kuro Satsuma Dori’s father is the Satsuma chicken, one of the three fowl species native to Japan, and its mother is the Ouhan Plymouth Rock, which has been nicknamed Goishi in Kagoshima.
Kuro Satsuma Dori has a characteristic tender texture with good crispiness and moderate elasticity. It also contains umami (many flavor components) and has a good amount of fat to make a juicy taste.
