Behind its slightly downy skin, the Adour kiwi hides a vibrant flesh, both sweet and tangy.
Grown with passion in the southwest of France, this exceptional fruit benefits from a Protected Geographical Indication (PGI) and a Protected Designation of Origin (PDO), guaranteeing a unique terroir, ancestral know-how, and quality recognized throughout Europe. The Adour Kiwi is much more than a fruit: it is the story of a region, a land, and committed men and women.
🍴 How to consume and store it?
Kiwis can be stored for several days at room temperature, where they continue to ripen slowly. To slow down their ripening, simply place them in the refrigerator.
Enjoy it plain by the spoonful, in a fruit salad, on porridge, or in a vitamin-packed smoothie. It can also be made into jam, sorbet, or as a pie filling. Thanks to its natural sweetness, the Adour kiwi enhances any dish without adding sugar!
📅 What is its season?
🧬 Features
The Adour Kiwi is distinguished by its light brown, slightly hairy skin, its intense green flesh, its small black seeds aligned in a perfect circle, and its unique taste: mild, sweet, balanced in acidity.
Grown in a temperate oceanic climate with mild winters and fertile soils, it benefits from a slow natural growth rate that enhances its flavor. It is rich in vitamin C (twice as much as an orange!), fiber, potassium, and is naturally low in calories.
💡 Did you know?
The Adour Kiwi is the only French kiwi to benefit from the dual protection of PGI (Protected Geographical Indication) and Label Rouge, official proof of its superior quality.
It's also one of the few fruits to be so highly regarded in Europe for its exceptional organoleptic properties. Another interesting fact: to guarantee its quality, each kiwi is hand-picked at perfect ripeness, then checked according to very strict sugar and firmness criteria.
