Origin
Grown in Italy during the Mediterranean melon season, where warm days and fertile soils help develop naturally sweet, fragrant fruit.
Why We Stock It
Selected for its juicy orange flesh, sweet flavour and aromatic character. Italian-grown cantaloupes are harvested at the height of the season for the best eating quality. These are the best quality available new season. Highly prized as a heirloom variety in Sicily.
Best Enjoyed
Perfect served fresh, added to fruit salads, paired with cured meats, or blended into smoothies and desserts.
Storage
Store at room temperature until ripe. Once cut, refrigerate and consume within 2–3 days.
