Savor Kimino fruit sweets at a farm-operated gelato shop

About this spot

A specialty gelato shop run by a fruit farmer in Kimino Town, where fans from distant places visit to enjoy gelato made abundantly with fruits from their own orchards and local growers. Featuring peaches, figs, mandarin oranges, and more, their signature is fresh flavors that capture the essence of whatever fruits are in season—with the flavors in the display case changing with each visit. The small shop nestled in surrounding green mountain foliage is picturesque, and gelato tastes especially delightful when enjoyed in the mountain breeze. It's customary for groups of fruit-loving friends to order different flavors and share a little of each.

Tips

The shop has limited operating days centered around weekends, and popular flavors sell out quickly. It's recommended to check the official SNS before visiting to confirm operating days and the day's flavors. The parking lot is small with limited spaces, so arriving right after opening is ideal. Have cash ready for payment.
