Notorious for crispy texture and juicy sweetness! If you love Pears, Tottori Prefecture, the birthplace of " 20th Century Asian Pears " ( 二十世紀梨 / Nijisseiki Nashi ) A.K.A. ' Nijisseki Pear ', is a must-see tourist attraction. 

Shinkansen ( 新甘泉 ), Natsuhime (なつひめ) and Akikansen ( 秋甘泉 ) varieties are discovered and exclusively produced in the Tottori region. It is well-known for its small centre core ( more flesh volume ), with succulent crunchy & fine-textured flesh and a high sweetness level of 13-14, which makes it one of the most popular varieties in the season 🍐🤤👍🏻

Refreshingly sweet and brimming with juice, Tottori 20th-century pears from Japan are exquisite in appearance and taste. The pale green-yellow luminescent exterior is elegant and understated. The crisp, white texture is the perfect counterpoint to the sweet finish. 

20th-century pearls are tree-ripened to perfect sweetness and flavour and will not ripen further after being picked.

🍐 CREATING THE PERFECT PEAR 🍐

In September, when the Pears have reached full maturity and are juicy and sweet, they are harvested by hand and packed in individual recycled mesh socks (packaging varies from grower to grower) to protect their delicate skin from bruising during transport to markets worldwide. ✈️📦🌏

Savour the satisfying juiciness, crisp snap and delicate sweetness of this Pear as it fills your mouth with a burst of flavor. Traditionally shared at the table after dinner, a Tottori Pear’s generous size makes it perfect for sharing 🫶🏻
