Rambutan ripening on the tree
The fruit of the slow-growing mangosteen
Longan ripening and filling in complex flavors
The durian. Infamous, odiferous and to many, delicious!
The four fruits above are the main tree fruit crops grown at the Panoramic Fruit Company. The mangosteen is sold out indefinitely. In 2008, there will be small quantities of pulasan and abiu. See Coming in 2008 for more on this.
Introduction
Panoramic Fruit Company is an exotic fruit farm located in western Puerto Rico. We started in 1994 and after many trials and numerous errors we are now supplying rambutan and other fruits in wholesale quantities. Starting in the Summer of 2003, we had our first rambutan harvest available for sale to wholesalers. The quantities continue to rise each year as the last trees to be planted come into production and the older trees increase their yield.
The harvest in 2007 was a very large rambutan crop and 2008 promises to be even larger. If you have wholesale inquiries, please feel free to email wholesale@panoramicfruit.com or call Robert Luciano at (787) 672-2134.
In addition, I am opening up the distribution of the rambutan to interested wholesale buyers on other islands in the Caribbean. The logistics of this need to be worked out but for some islands, this could be the first time that fresh high quality rambutan have ever been available. Contact us at wholesale@panoramicfruit.com for additional information. Also see the Current Availability page, too, for more information.
There may be some durian available in August through September each year. This will be posted on the Current Availability page.
The longan will be the next fruit to appear in steadily increasing quantities. There are notes about this fruit on the Current Availability page (see link immediately below) posted on March 22, 2007. This is a somewhat fragile tree so I am hoping to see some fruit this year but any mild wind storm could change this outcome for the worst.
