Persimmon: 4 pcs (Delhi/NCR)

Honey-sweet, jelly-soft and here for only a few weeks each autumn: persimmon (Japani phal) grown by farmers in the Kullu valley of Himachal Pradesh. A naturally sweet, fibre-rich snack your whole family can enjoy without guilt. Safe by proof, not by promise: every pack carries an InstaTrace QR code. Scan it to see the exact farm your fruit came from, meet the farmer and see how much more he earned. Our fruit is ripened without carbide and tested for pesticide residues.

When to eat: enjoy once the fruit feels soft like a ripe tomato and the skin turns deep orange. If it is still firm, keep it at room temperature for 1–3 days, ideally in a paper bag. Once soft, refrigerate and eat within 2–3 days. Cut in half and scoop with a spoon, or slice for kids' lunchboxes.

Freshness: cooled right after harvest and carried to you in temperature-controlled transport.
