The Denomination of Origin Callosa d’en Sarrià is the starting point of our loquats, a stone fruit with which the campaign begins and which welcomes the spring period.
A soft and smooth skin surrounds the fleshy, firm and sweet interior. The skin comes off easily to make way for the orange flesh, rich in nutrients that protect our digestive system. Loquats are recommended for diabetics because of their effect on blood sugar levels.
The bulk of the production goes from April to June, during these months we collect fruits of Algar, Golden and Xirlero varieties. In addition, in our varietal development center we are working on experimental varieties.
