Organoleptic characteristics
The Courgette of the Mastil variety has a smooth and medium-dark green skin and an elongated and cylindrical shape. Slightly sweet flavour with a firm and juicy texture. It is perfect for grilling, roasting, sautéing, or even using raw in salads.
Harvest and Shipment
We grow our vegetables outdoors, which together with the temperature variation between day and night are the key to their great flavour. This means that their ripening depends entirely on the weather each year. An approximate calendar is from the beginning of June to the end of September.
In the early morning of the shipment day we go into our orchard to pick the vegetables still cool from the night. We harvest those with the perfect maturity level so that they arrive safe and sound. Afterwards, we put them into a box with recycled material, without any plastic. In the afternoon of the same say, our transport partner comes and picks them up. #plasticfree
