Thanks, Joseph!! Sounds YUMMY!! Almost like an American persimmon?
Your kind attention please Flowntheloop and Sarah, the taxonomy is 'ripe' enough.
The persimmon (kaki) is a sweet, slightly tangy fruit with a soft to occasionally fibrous texture.

Yes flowntheloop and Sarah documenting edible fruits is one of my favorite project, I will try. :)
I'm very curious about it too! I hope you get to try it!
I also want try it but now I am about 400 km away from the place I spotted this tree and we don't have it now here. if I am going there only after about 30 days and I do not know what will happen to the fruits. :)
Please make sure to TRY it once it ripens!!
I wanna know what it tastes like!!

Hi Sarah, i did not because this is not ripe. Thank you.
So....did you eat it, Joseph?
