Never tried it but excited for it!
Ripe fruit is very sweet, crispy flesh. However, it is easily spoiled. The unripe part is astringent so it must be peeled carefully or waited for it to ripen.
It's quite strange to eat, persimmons are as sweet as sugar, but they have to be peeled deeply to avoid being acrid
sweet and yummy
Persimmon is very crispy, sweet like sugar, when ripe, it has a dark black color like this. Will buy again
The fruit is large, sweet, fragrant, crispy, not crushed at delivery. The fruit is very fresh, kept in the fridge for a few days and still not mushy
The inside is black, not too sweet, tastes like apples, and will not be repurchased
Very small and sweet

I love this. Very sweet. Remind me of Japan
Only one left. This tastes fine but I don't know if it is okay to eat the one has black dots on it.
I'm not yet used to the weight unit, so I was wondering how much it would be, but it was more than I expected. It arrived very fresh.
It's a little bit mushy. It's sweet.
They are ripe to eat. Some of them are a little damaged, but it's not a big deal.
Not even a 3.2 lb and they rotten
It’s yummy, but so many seeds
There were 10 of them. Cheaper than the supermarket.
First batch of chocolate was very nice - so we decided to order more to give to families and friends here in MI. We usually never get access to this variety of chocolate persimmons here. So sharing the chocolaty goodness.
Overall good sizes. Fast speed on order delivery. This is the first time trying, so trying to figure out if I should cut open the darker ones that might be pollinated. Cause supposedly you can eat the pollinated ones early cause they’ll be sweet vs being astringent.
