In the [[Valencia]] region of Spain, there is a production area of kaki called the "''Ribera del Xùquer''" which has a protected label and where only persimmons of the variety "Rojo Brillante" or derived mutations are cultivated. The largest part of these astringent type persimmons are CO2 treated to remove astringency and marketed as "Persimon" with one "m", which is a registered trademark.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://spanishpersimon.co.uk/spanish-persimon/ |title=Spanish persimon |date=2012 |publisher=Foods from Spain |access-date=17 November 2015}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |title=Spanish Persimmons: the Sweetest Things! |author= |website=Foods & Wines from Spain |date=22 November 2018 |url= https://www.foodswinesfromspain.com/spanishfoodwine/global/food/features/feature-detail/spanish-persimmons.html}}</ref>
