Normanschein Pear
NORMANSCHEIN was extensively grown in Normandy and Austria and was esteemed for its high quality perry. It is excellent for making perry and for distillation. The fruit is small, turbinate, and greenish-yellow covered with cinnamon-russet and ashy-gray dots. The flesh is yellowish-white, somewhat dry and can be sweet but with some sprightliness. It originated in Normandy in 1913.
