Gojo Persimmons (Fuyu Persimmons)

When you slice into them, juice drips from the orange flesh. One bite reveals a melting sweetness and a refreshing juiciness that fills your mouth—the Fuyu persimmons of Gojo, Nara, are truly the pinnacle of ripeness. Gojo is known as 'Japan's number one persimmon town' and is one of the country's leading production areas. In Nishiyoshino, nestled in the mountains, persimmon orchards stretch as far as the eye can see, with both production volume and flavor praised as the best in Japan. Early-ripening fruits offer a crisp texture and refreshing sweetness, while well-ripened ones provide a soft, juice-filled, rich sweetness. Even within the same Fuyu variety, you can enjoy two different expressions. They reach their peak deliciousness as autumn deepens. Please enjoy the sweetness that has grown soaking up plenty of sunlight right on the trees.
