Shodoshima is the Olive Island

Although Shodoshima just north of the Takamatsu City on Shikoku, can be translated as "small bean" island, it is more famous for its olive plantations. It was on Shodoshima that olive cultivation started in Japan. If you ever have the opportunity to visit, japan-guide.com has some great information on visiting the island's many attractions. I didn't have time to try the somen, but I did try the olive flavored ice cream which was delicious.
