Kiwis
European kiwis have conquered the global market thanks to their high nutritional value and unique taste. They are grown in ideal conditions, in areas with plenty of water (as they need enough water to grow), and sunshine as well.
Farmers pick fruits one by one when they are full of “juice”, as early as late September, or early October. They stand out for their large size and uniform shape. They provide the human body with vitamins and antioxidants. Enjoy them fresh, in jams, fruit salads, or sweet tarts and even in main courses.
Some of the cultivated varieties are:
Red
(Red Passion Don Hong)
They have a characteristic dark red color in the core, yellow flesh, and the sweetest-exotic taste a kiwi can give you. Their peel is smooth with a complete lack of hair.
Yellow
(Dori, A19, Jinyan)
They are smooth, with no fuzz on the skin, and typical for the bright yellow color of their flesh. They have zero acidity and a sweet taste.
Green
(Hayward)
With an intense green color and a typical acidic taste, they are juicy and have firm flesh.
