Forelle pear tree is thought to originate in northern Saxony and later introduced to the states by immigrants in the 1800's. The Forelle pear tree produces a singularly handsome and distinctive fruit, yellow with a crimson blush and trout-like speckling (lenticels) from which comes the name Forelle, the German name for trout (keeps better than trout!). The fruit is buttery without all the juice. And it has a faint but discernible cinnamon spiciness. The Forelle pears flesh is melting, aromatic and rich flavor. The tree is very productive.
