Black Worcester
£18.00Availability: In stockOut of stock
A pear with a history! May date back to Roman times. Definitely dated back to 1575 so clearly around before then. Depicted on the Worcestershire coat of arms. Large oval pears turn to dark mahogany. A culinary variety that does not soften enough to eat as a dessert but stores really well..
