USA Nectarine White Peach

USA Nectarine skin is smooth, taut, and thin with a white base, covered in red-pink blush. It is important to note that the red and pink hues are not an indication of ripeness, but if the white base coloring bears a green tone, it may signify that the fruit has been harvested early. Underneath the surface, the white flesh is aqueous, succulent, and semi-firm, with a soft, tender consistency when ripe. There may also be red hues streaked throughout the flesh, depending on the variety, especially around the central stone. The flesh also contains low acidity, contributing to a sweet flavor with vanilla, honey, and warm spice nuances. Nectarines lean toward more of a tangy-sweet flavor.
