Suitable for Vegetarians and Vegans.An ancient variety of Greengage, these plums have a level of sweetness and depth of flavour unseen in modern varieties. Unlike commercial plums, these are grown naturally and left to fully ripen on the tree. Surface scarring indicates full maturity, a natural indicator that the fruit is ready to pick. Their colour and scarring will intensify as the season goes on. We start the season with Reine Claude Dorée, before moving on to the Reine Claude de Bavay, a firmer-fleshed, more complex fruit. Both varieties sourced directly from a specialist grower of stone fruit in Montauban, southwest France.
