Okinawa Peach Pineapple 沖繩桃香菠蘿

ピーチパイン

ピーチパインは比較的小ぶりのパイナップルで、１個7００ｇ程の大きさです。表皮の色は収穫時にはまだ黄色っぽいのですが、熟すと赤みを帯びはじめ、全体に赤くなったら食べ頃となります。香りがとても強く、確かに桃のような香りも含まれている気がしますが、甘い蜜のような香りが強いです。

It will need a few days to ripen in room temperature until it becomes completely red before serving.  Best to serve cold.

Peach pineapples are a small variety, but because of the high level of sweetness and juiciness, can weigh anywhere from 14 and 28 ounces. When ripe, its exterior turns a red-orange hue with pale eyes. The flesh is a bright yellowish-white, with a soft edible core. The texture of the fruit is creamy, tender and juicy, offering a balanced sweet-tart tropical flavor with nuances of peach. Slightly sharp in flavor when first harvested, the acidity of the Peach pineapple will mellow after a few days in storage. Highly aromatic, the Peach pineapple will have a sweet scent when ripe and ready to eat.

桃菠蘿産量稀少具有芳郁香氣如白桃，果肉呈奶白色，口感也比較柔軟，絕佳的甜酸度讓人垂涎欲滴，甜美是這沖繩菠蘿的特徵。栽培的人不多，能夠完熟才收割的期間很短，是非常貴重的水果。它體型較細小，每一個大約600g左右。那種像白桃的香氣令人難以抗拒。
