Persimmons of Shimoichi
Fruit turning orange under the autumn sun—these are the persimmons of Shimoichi Town. The Yoshino region is one of the famous production areas for persimmons. In Shimoichi Town, varieties such as Fuyu persimmons are grown under a mild climate. Persimmons ripened on the tree boast a melt-in-your-mouth sweetness and smooth flesh. When autumn arrives, vibrant persimmons line the shelves of direct sales offices. They are a bountiful autumn blessing, so nutritious that there is a saying: "When persimmons turn red, doctors turn green (lose work)." They can be enjoyed delicious as they are, or made into dried persimmons. A single fruit ripened on the tree has an exceptionally soft, syrupy texture. Please enjoy the rich flavors of autumn ripening in the villages of Shimoichi.
