The best things come in small packages. 

Mini Persimmons are a rare delicacy even in Japan. These luxurious fruits were first cultivated in 1981, and are currently only grown in two prefectures: Niigata and Gifu. They are about 1/10th the size of a regular persimmon, but don't let their size fool you. They're just as sweet, if not sweeter than your average fruit!

Naturally, these fruits are astringent, but not Mini Persimmons. A special farming technique using carbon dioxide gas and temperature removes all astringency, ensuring a succulent sweetness in every bite of fruit. 
Mini Persimmons are completely seed-free and are best consumed without peeling. Enjoy the crisp, nutrient-rich skin with the enchanting sweetness of the soft, nectary first bite. 

How to Best Enjoy Your Mini Persimmons: 
Firm Mini persimmons: Rich, satisfyingly crisp skin and flesh.
Ripe Mini persimmons: Melt in your mouth and explode with a sugary, nectar-like flavor. 
BONUS TIP:  Freeze Mini persimmons and consume when half-thawed to experience a sherbert-like luxury dessert.
