Haas Avocado (Box of 12 units)

The Hass variety has an oil content that ranges between 8 and 12%. Also, the percentage of water is low, only 60-70%. Its vitamin B and vitamin E content are considerable. Both the fruit and the seed are relatively small, weighing between 200-300 g together. The skin is somewhat leathery, rough, green to slightly blackish when on the tree; once harvested, it turns purplish to black. The fruit softens as it ripens, so the consumer recognizes the optimum time to consume it. The fruit is of excellent quality, without fiber, high resistance to transport, and long post-harvest life. In general, the tree of this variety flowers only once a year, from early to mid-spring. Depending on the variety and the thermal accumulation of the place, it can take between 6 and 11 months to ripen. The Hass variety, especially in cool climates, can remain on the tree once ripe for several months without any apparent deterioration, greatly extending the harvest period.
