Pineapple (Ananas) FROM INDIA
Indian pineapples, particularly those grown in the lush tropical climates of Kerala and Northeast India, are cherished for their golden-yellow flesh, enchanting aroma, and perfect balance of tartness and sugar. We export the large, robust 'Kew' variety (ideal for slices and canning) and the smaller, intensely sweet 'Queen' variety.
