***Biew Kiew Longan is currently available for Pre-Order. When placing a Pre-Order, this means the fruit you have ordered is not currently in season, or is extremely limited in season. Your pre-order holds your place in line on our wait list. When Biew Kiew Longan comes into season and is ready to harvest from the trees, you will receive your order as soon as possible.*** Origin: The Biew Kiew is a variety of longan (Dimocarpus longan) that originated in Thailand and is known for its large, sweet, and aromatic fruit. The fruit is translucent and encased in a thin, brown shell. Longan is a tropical member of the soapberry family, which is the same family the lychee belongs to. Flavor Profile: Biew Kiew Longans are very juicy, with a high water content and high natural sugars, so they are very sweet. The translucent flesh has the consistency of a grape and a grape-like taste with hints of fine wine to some. How To Eat: Longan is tree-ripened and arrives ready to eat immediately. If not consumed immediately, it should be refrigerated to preserve its shelf life. First come first serve, any orders that can't be shipped this season will be reserved for next season. The total weight of each box varies depending on the size, shape, and mass of the fruit: One Pound contains up to 1 pound Small Box contains up to 3-5 pounds Large Box contains up to 8-10 pounds Extra Large Box contains up to 16-20 pounds Bulk Box contains up to 32-40 pounds We ALWAYS recommend ordering a LARGE BOX for the best value, when compared to a Small Box. Because shipping, handling, and delivery are so expensive per package, the Large Box will contain more fruit and ultimately a better value.
