Feijoa
A fruit that is increasing in popularity in the United States is the Feijoa, also known as the Pineapple Guava or Brazilian Guava. It's commonly found in Brazil, Argentina, Colombia, Paraguay, Uruguay and New Zealand.Once the fruits have fallen from the tree, it is at its ripest form, which is the perfect time to harvest them and turn them into our purees.
It has a floral and tropical aroma, with a bright, sweet-tart taste. Flavor notes include hints of pineapple, guava, apple, melon, citrus and mint. Feijoa makes incredible cocktails and beverages. It pairs perfectly with light food dishes or can be enjoyed just by itself. Some say when they’ve brewed with this fruit, the beer almost tastes like sour candy, sweet and tart, accompanied by a big fruit character.
