Opinions on oriental pears

Hi guys, I’m going to give my opinion on Asian pears.
I like them for several reasons:

  • Its crunchy texture
  • Its long conservation period
  • The taste

In some varieties I find them lacking in flavor and sweetness

I like these varieties among others

  • Chojuro
  • Kosui
  • Yoinashi
  • Shinko
  • Nijisseiki
  • Mishirazu

I hate to death, the Koreant Giant variety (huge fruits in size but tasteless and not very sweet)

I love the hybrid varieties, between Asian pear and European pear, since the European variety gives it a lot of fragrance, flavor and sweetness.

Among others these varieties:

  • Benita Rafzas (General Leclerc x Hosui)

Benita

  • New World (Bartlett x Korean Giant)

Both they have fructified in my orchard, and they are both fantastic

The hybrid varieties of Prevar

  • Reddy Robin
  • Maxie
    etc … (hehehehehehee)

They they have not fructified in my orchard, and I cannot give an objective opinion on them.

Regards
Jose
