Discover the Conference Pear of PDO Rincón de Soto
Our products and pear trees are situated on the lower banks of the rivers Ebro, Cidacos and Alhama, an extraordinary location for growing pears of exceptional quality. Fields are flat, well aired, humid, permeable and clean. All of this enhances some important properties such as colour, pressure, flavour, juiciness, and texture.
One of the special characteristics of our conference pears is the russeting of the skin. Though not very extensive, russeting occurs as a natural result of evaporation by sunlight of the moisture left on the fruit by the morning mist.
Our conference pears are bright green with natural russeting and yellowish flesh. Pears are longer, larger and sweeter than other varieties and always keep their stalk intact. Their juicy flesh melts in the mouth and their core is not grainy.
Pears are very high in vitamins A, B, C, D and E which have very powerful antioxidant properties. In addition, pears help to detoxify the body, specially kidneys and intestines and help with the decalcification of the arteries carrying calcium to the bones.
