Product Name: Xuxiang Kiwifruit
Description:
Xuxiang is a premium green-fleshed kiwifruit variety, bred from wild germplasm in Jiangsu Province and officially released in the 1980s. As a representative of China's domestically bred kiwifruit cultivars, it has gained widespread market recognition for its excellent flavor, ready-to-eat convenience, and strong commercial performance.
Appearance:
The fruit is long cylindrical with a brown skin covered in fine hairs that is easy to peel. When sliced open, the jade-green flesh reveals a striking yellow core and small black seeds – a visually appealing presentation.
Flavor:
Xuxiang delivers a perfectly balanced sweet-tart flavor with a rich, aromatic profile. It features hints of fresh grass and tropical fruit, offering a refreshing and satisfying taste experience. With a soluble solids content of 15%–19% Brix, it provides a consistently delicious sweetness.

Unlike many kiwifruit varieties that require extended ripening, Xuxiang offers a good eating experience early in the ripening stage, reducing the need for long waiting periods and minimizing post-harvest losses.
