Benjer - Feijoa & Apple
(Post theme: “Under My Skin” by Gin Wigmore)
Last time: Benjer Mango & Apple, this time: Benjer Feijoa & Apple.
275mL glass bottle. Ordered online - I haven’t seen them elsewhere yet, but hopefully that changes in the future.
Feijoa are such a fascinating fruit - not native to NZ, and not only found here, but practically our native fruit anyway. If you haven’t already, you should read Kate Evans’ Feijoa Book. I’m not a huge fan of eating feijoa, but I do love the taste and drinking it, and it pairs very well with other fruits. This one is strongly feijoa, with only a small taste of apple - just enough to make it taste like a juice and not a feijoa slushie. I think it would be a good introduction to feijoa as a taste. I wonder if I can take juice overseas - it’s getting increasingly difficult to take small gifts for colleagues when travelling. I’d definitely have this again, particularly out of feijoa season when they aren’t everywhere you look.
Overall: 9.4/10.
