« Bosc »
Bosc are dark yellow or light green in background, overlaid with gold or brown russeting. Their long tapered neck presents a distinctive appearance.
Bosc are juicy with a very delicate flavor, buttery and aromatic. They ripen well at room temperature. Bosc are especially good paired with soft cheeses such as Brie or for fondue, and go well with wine. They are also good for baking, boiling, poaching and eating fresh.
