Today, we want to introduce you to one of our fruits again. Thanks to its low sugar content and high water content (up to 95%!), it\u2019s not just the summer hit for figure-conscious people.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s as refreshing as a big scoop of ice cream, a cocktail and a swim in the pool all together \u2013 and it also sweetens the warm summer months for us. We\u2019re talking about our SanLucar watermelons. We\u2019re now going to reveal to you who eats them, where they come from, and what makes them so special!<\/p>\n

SanLucar watermelon growing.<\/h3>\n

Watermelons are sun gods. The fact that they would feel right at home in sun-drenched southern Spain was obvious to us. Our growers have specialized in the cultivation of the green summer fruit here. And because practice makes perfect, thanks to years of experience, they know exactly how to make the red flesh of the round wonders incredibly juicy and particularly sweet. How nice we can have them all summer \u2013 because the harvest time runs from April to September!<\/p>\n

Since the watermelon is not a fruit that post-ripens, it must be harvested fully ripened. At the beginning of the season, it is still difficult to determine the maturity of the fruits from the outside. But thanks to the slicing open of melons, our Master Growers from Almer\u00eda can easily check whether the melons are ripe yet. Then they are gently picked by hand and sorted. The longer the season runs, the safer it is to harvest perfectly ripened watermelons.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/div>
