What Is Natural Sun-Dried Apricot Jumbo & No 1? & The Supply Process
Natural Sun-Dried Apricot Jumbo & No 1 (60-100 pcs/kg) is the large-size class of the sun-dried apricot family, obtained from Malatya apricots that are picked tree-ripened without any chemical or sulphuring treatment and dried directly under the Malatya sun on clean tarpaulins and drying racks.
Fermented by the heat of the sun, the fruit loses its yellow color and takes on its characteristic bronze-dark brown tone; the natural fructose within it caramelizes, giving it an intense honey-like, molasses-like aroma. It contains no preservatives or sulphur, and thanks to its large size, it may be preferred in gift and gourmet packages where visual presentation is prioritized.
This large-size sun-dried apricot is selected from grower orchards free of pesticides and chemicals; after being kept in contracted cold storage facilities, it is delivered to the wholesaler in 10 kg / 12.5 kg cartons or custom packaging upon request.
