Paraguayan

The flat peach, a very refreshing and fleshy fruit with nutritional properties beneficial to your health that will surprise you.

The paraguayo or paraguaya (Prunus persica var. platycarpa) is a fruit of the species of the genus prunus like the peach.

It is also very similar in shape to the peach, but with a more flattened shape, although its taste is somewhat sweeter and less acidic. It also has a delicious refreshing and juicy taste. Its velvety peach-like skin has reddish and greenish tones. It is also somewhat thinner. It has a small bone inside.

In Spain we can enjoy these delicious fruits from May to August, saying goodbye with the end of summer. Like their direct cousins, the peach and the nectarine, they are summer fruits.
