Kiwi Giallo
Italian-grown yellow kiwi includes several cultivars, with golden flesh and producer-specific growing traditions rather than a single protected national identity.
- Identity
- Yellow-fleshed kiwi grown in Italy
- Examples
- SunGold, Jintao and Jinyan
- Character
- Cultivar-specific skin and taste
Try it in the kitchen
Taste the ripe fruit on its own, then add it to a simple bowl of yogurt. OP Kiwi Sole’s SunGold fruit is sweet and less acid, with smooth skin; keep those traits tied to that cultivar when comparing other yellow kiwis.
Ask which yellow kiwi it is
The own-grower guides identify SunGold, Jintao and Jinyan among the yellow cultivars in Italian production. Check the variety and the actual country of origin on the fruit’s label; yellow flesh alone does not establish that it was grown in Italy.
