Asakura Persimmons

The history of cultivation spans approximately 100 years. Asakura is known as a premier region for sweet persimmons in Japan. Well-drained soil and significant temperature fluctuations between day and night produce persimmons with high sugar content. By allowing them to ripen slowly on the tree, the sweetness becomes densely concentrated. In addition to the representative Fuyu variety, various unique varieties bear fruit one after another, such as the Taishu variety, which offers a crisp texture similar to a pear. In autumn, Asakura is a season of rich abundance, with the surroundings dyed in the color of persimmons. Biting into a freshly picked, fully ripe persimmon brings a gentle sweetness that spreads through your mouth, making you smile involuntarily. Please visit Asakura at least once to taste the bountiful blessings unique to autumn.
