They are ripening a little earlier this year.

Early! but we’re already seeing Transparent (apples) dropping, so who knows?

I like its taste. If ripened properly it is a very sweet pear.

They don’t look ripe to me. Mine are several weeks from
being ripe.

I will know in a few weeks when I test them. They lifted off the easily but the taste test will be the best judge.

I always let mine ripen on the tree. They taste so much better, but
you have to pick them fast, after they ripen, because they don’t hang
well on the tree.

I went ahead and tested the first one picked. It was firm, crunchy, and sweet. Pretty sure they were picked at a good stage for further indoor ripening.
