Nijiseiki is the classic Asian pear for anyone primarily seeking juice, crispness and refreshment. Its smooth yellow-green skin is thin, while the highly succulent flesh has a mild and delicate flavour. The tree crops generously, sometimes at the expense of fruit size, so thinning is useful. Its flavour is less intense than Hosui or Kumoi, and fire blight susceptibility deserves close attention.
