About this product
Taitung is Taiwan's main sugar-apple region, growing varieties such as Damu and Soft-branch as well as the atemoya ("pineapple sugar apple"), of which Taitung produces over 95%. The creamy white flesh is extremely sweet. Fresh fruit does not suit long transit, so export focuses on nearby markets, with whole frozen fruit also available.
