Why we chose persimmon

A fruit Japan has treasured for over a thousand years.

In Japan, the persimmon is called kaki, and it has been part of everyday life for well over a thousand years.

Every autumn, dried persimmons hang outside Japanese homes. The leaves have been used to wrap sushi. The tannin-rich juice, called kakishibu, has been used for generations as a traditional dye.

Today, Japanese soap makers also make persimmon soaps for daily washing, so it's a familiar sight on shelves there.

Our name, Kakiya, means "persimmon shop". We were inspired by that tradition, and made it a simple bar with persimmon extract for your daily wash.

  1. Lather

    Work up a rich lather with warm water in your shower or bath.
