Beneath the stripes of the Charentais Melon, there’s an aromatic flesh that tastes just as good as it smells. As these striking fruits mature, their stripes darken while the rest of the skin develops a yellow hue, making for an impressive addition to your fruit bowl. The pale orange flesh underneath has a succulent yet firm texture and gives off a honeyed, fruity fragrance. The Charentais’ high sugar-content and mild acidity fills every juicy bite with sweet flavour, followed by a soft, floral aftertaste. Excellent as a refreshing dessert or as a way to beat the summer heat.
