Feijoas: This small, egg-shaped fruit is native to South America, though New Zealand is now a major exporter. A thin, bright green skin surrounds the feijoa's exceedingly fragrant, cream-coloured flesh that encases a jellylike centre. The flavour is complex, with sweet notes of quince, pineapple and mint.

The Feijoa was collected in Southern Brazil by the German explorer Friedrich Sellow in 1815 and introduced to Europe by French botanist and horticulturist, Dr Edouard Andre, in 1890. It was named after Brazilian botanist, Joam da Silva Feijoa. Feijoas were introduced into New Zealand in the 1920s. As the climate is ideal for growing feijoas, they are a popular addition to many New Zealand gardens.

Experience and enjoy! What a great gift idea!
