Introducing the Reed Avocado, named after James Reed growing in San Diego County since 1948 a wonderful mid-summer treat you will look forward to each year. Reed avocados are large, round softball shaped, and beautifully green with a thick smooth skin and rich, creamy flesh. Their smooth, buttery texture offer the creamiest avocado I have ever tasted. I truly enjoyable avocados to eat fresh, whether you are slicing them for salads, spreading them on toast, scooping them into guacamole, or simply enjoying them with a little salt and lime. The thick shell-like skin of this variety makes it easy to scope out.
Unlike Hass avocados, Reed avocados do not turn dark when they ripen. Their skin stays green, so the best way to know when they are ready is by feel. When the avocado gives slightly under gentle pressure, it is ready to cut open and enjoy. Please also pop the stem off the bottom and insert a toothpick into the stem open all the way down to the seed. If the toothpick passes easily to the seed the avocado is ready to consume.
Because of their generous large size at ¾ of a pound each to 1.5 pounds each and creamy texture, Reed avocados are perfect for sharing, meal prep, or anyone who wants a little more avocado in every bite. They are a seasonal summer favorite and a limited variety we love offering while they are at their peak.
