Shizuoka Hamakita Jiro Persimmon

浜北次郎柿

Grown in the renowned Hamakita region of Shizuoka Prefecture, Hamakita Jiro Persimmons are a prized Japanese autumn specialty, celebrated for their exceptional sweetness and distinctive crisp texture.

Unlike many traditional persimmons, the Jiro variety features firm, finely textured flesh with a satisfying crunch, naturally rich sweetness, and virtually no seeds. As the fruit ripens, its texture gradually softens, offering a different yet equally delightful eating experience.

With a cultivation history dating back over a century, Hamakita Jiro Persimmons are highly regarded in Japan for their outstanding quality and flavour.

Best enjoyed fresh, these beautiful golden-orange persimmons offer a wonderful taste of Japan's autumn harvest.
