- JMJulia M.Verified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 stars4/5/23Delicious Persimmons!
I look forward to these dried persimmons each season; approximately December-March. I ordered twice this past season, once in January and another in March. My 93 year old mom absolutely enjoyed these dried persimmons. However, I did notice the difference between the January batch from the March batch. The January ones were very soft and sweet, and the March batch were harder & less sweet. I don’t know what people prefer, but I like the January batch better than the March batch.

Arrived extremely quickly and in perfect condition. These are soft, plump, super sweet, and just amazing. The flavor is amazing with vanilla and citrus notes. Reminds me in a way of an orange creamsicle. Probably the best dried persimmons I've ever had.

We wait all year to have these exquisite fruit. They’re nothing like anywhere else. Once they sell out, it is like a waiting game until next season. They are sweet and perfect. Expensive but worth every penny. If people don’t believe it, then there’s more for us!

These Japanese Dried Persimmons are a seasonal product only sold from December through to the end of February and I get them every time they become available. The best dried persimmons I've ever had. They're sweet, soft, and chewy and the perfect snack to enjoy in between meals. I love having a bag of these on hand, try 'em! You won't regret it!
