Yamaguchi Farm Direct Sales Shop: A persimmon paradise where you can enjoy autumn in Nara│Nara Japan

Introducing “Yamaguchi Farm Direct Sales”, a persimmon sales store located along National Route 168 in Nishiyoshino-cho, Gojo City, Nara Prefecture!

I happened to be passing by and stopped by, and the “Anpogaki” I encountered there was so special, I don’t know how to describe its sweetness.

Since then, I have continued to buy again. It is also ideal as a touring course.

Overview of “Yamaguchi Farm Direct Sales Shop”

Yamaguchi Farm Direct Sales Office is located in Nishiyoshino-cho, Gojo City, Nara Prefecture, and is a direct sales office that provides delicious persimmons.

Here, seedless ”Tonegaki” is sold from mid-September to late October,”Fuyugaki” is sold from late October to late November, and ”Edo persimmon” is sold from late October to late November.

In particular, “npogaki” is a very popular product that is made by drying fully ripened Tone persimmons to retain their moisture, and is characterized by its thick texture. You can enjoy the natural sweetness and persimmon flavor without using any sugar.

There are also dried persimmons, which have a unique flavor that changes from bitterness to elegant sweetness when dried.

What is anpo persimmon?

Astringent persimmons are peeled and fumigated with sulfur, making them a type of dried fruit. Dried persimmons are naturally dried without fumigation.

Compared to dried persimmons, they contain more moisture (20-30% for dried persimmons and 50% for anpo persimmons!), and they have a jelly-like, syrupy texture.

Yamaguchi Farm’s Anpo persimmons are much sweeter and tastier than ordinary dried persimmons.

Review

Yamaguchi Farm’s direct sales store is located across the road from the rider’s cafe “Moto DINER”. I happened to pass by while touring.
