STONE FRUITS

stone-crate
Stone fruits, also known as drupes, are characterised by their fleshy exterior surrounding a single hard pit or ‘stone’ at the centre. Renowned for their sweetness, vibrant colours, and juicy textures, stone fruits are highly versatile — enjoyed fresh, dried, or in a variety of culinary applications.

Peaches

Peaches feature a velvety skin ranging from pale yellow to deep red, encasing juicy, aromatic flesh that can be yellow or white. Known for their intense sweetness and floral notes, peaches are harvested from November to February.

Apricots

Apricots are small, golden-orange fruits with a soft, velvety skin and sweet, slightly tart flesh. They are enjoyed fresh, dried, or used in jams and baking. Production is typically from November to December.

Nectarines

Nectarines are similar to peaches but with smooth, glossy skin and firmer flesh. The flavour is sweet with a slight tang, making them ideal for fresh consumption and desserts. Production runs from November to January.

Cherries

Cherries are small, round fruits with a glossy red to deep purple skin and succulent flesh. They offer a sweet-tart flavour and are prized for fresh eating, baking, and preserves. Production is from November to January.

Plums

Plums vary widely in skin and flesh colour, from deep purple to red and golden yellow. The taste ranges from sweet to tangy, with a juicy, firm texture. Production is from December to February.

Nectacot

Nectacot is a hybrid between nectarine and apricot, combining the smooth skin of a nectarine with the rich, sweet flavour of an apricot. This unique fruit offers a distinctive taste experience and is harvested from December to January.
