People who tried this
“I never liked the sourness of this fruit, but I was willing to finally try one from New Zealand. And let me tell you the truth: you have never really tried a kiwi before eating one from this country. I was expecting to be given only a few slices of kiwi, but instead we were able to savor also the dried versions of the fruit, juices, jams, chocolates…I loved everything (really!), but what impressed me the most was the green kiwi. It tasted a bit sweet and a lot (LOT!) less sour than all the ones I tried before. I couldn´t stop eating it! The golden kiwi was deliciously sweet, with some honey notes.”
