How sweet it is!
RR1 is a new variety plum that has brix levels as high as 19 at harvest (average range is 17-19). It features a yellow flesh that changes to light red as it ripens.
This pretty new plum is a late season variety that delivers a sweet flavor balanced with just a hint of tang. Limited quantities.
The Chilean plum season will finish with a flourish at Oppy, when the exciting new fruit known as RR1 arrives in April.
RR1 is a late-harvesting, long-storing plum with yellow flesh that transforms to light red as it ripens. First planted in Chile 2010, RR1 follows the popular Angelino variety in availability and can sustain the plum season well into May.
We anticipate our first Angelino plum arrival of the season this week. Unfortunately, this preferred plum variety was badly damaged by last autumn's frost. Our volume will be less than half of 2013, peaking in the 60s and smaller. 50s and larger will be available for premium pricing.
These beautiful teardrop-shaped yellow plums have a tender skin that blushes as they ripen. The flesh is a lush amber color with a delicately sweet taste. Here for a very limited time. Packaging specs: 88 cases per pallet—PLU 4442.
