Setouchi Lemon Persimmon puts a bright twist on a classic Japanese sweet. This box of 12 treats combines rich, domestic dried persimmon with fragrant lemons grown in the warm Setouchi climate. The natural sweetness of dried persimmon balances beautifully with the citrus, giving each bite a refreshing, well-rounded flavor.
The Setouchi region along Japan's Inland Sea is known for its mild climate and fine citrus fruits. Wagashi makers there have long drawn on these local specialties to craft simple, elegant sweets that pair well with green tea. This confection follows that tradition, joining time-honored persimmon drying with the sunny flavor of Setouchi lemons in one neat package.
Made by Kuniwa Sangyo, these treats stay fresh for 90 days at room temperature when kept away from direct sunlight, heat, and humidity. Store them somewhere cool as soon as they arrive, and once opened, move them to the freezer to keep their flavor at its best.
