Sweet, crisp and refreshing, with orange overtones.
The pears store exceptionally well.
The Asian pears are sweet and juicy. They tend to be on the small side, (about 1.5 size a golf ball) but the skin is not as thick as the kind you get at the Asian supermarket, so it's fine to eat the skin. It makes a handy, easy snack to pack for my kids.
These had great flavor! Sometimes Asian pears are quite watery, but not these--just nice and juicy. They are pretty small--my kids usually eat two.
