APPEARANCE 




Very pretty rich red, orange, and yellow coloring, smooth skin, medium yellow flesh
AROMA 




Perfection – just smells completely delightful, perfumy, sweet, makes me want to shove it up my nose permanently
TEXTURE 




Slightly mealy but not awful, not my favorite texture though
TASTE 




Completely ho hum, general nectarine flavor but not sweet really – a disappointment after how amazing the fragrance was
OVERALL 




I want to smell this nectarine all day every day. I don’t want to eat it, I am not disappointed about throwing it out and I don’t recommend it to anyone. I may try this one again though because the fragrance was so damn awesome. (Note: tried this again two weeks later and my conclusions are exactly the same – sad).

NOTES
This particular nectarine is a white and yellow nectarine combined. The note at the grocery store indicated that they are “super sweet” when ripe. I’m not sure how one would attain that. Mine was at the perfect pressure for ripeness and looked beautiful.

I love this Site! I like the name, I like the by line,I like the hand pictures, I like the If statements that are positive. (I don’t like the ones that make me feel bad if I like the fruit.)
Great Job!!!!!!!!!
