Product Name: Yuhuang Li (Jade Emperor Plum)
Description:
The Yuhuang Li, also known as the Peach Blossom Plum, is a traditional Chinese heritage variety with over 700 years of cultivation history. First documented in the Yuan Dynasty agricultural classic Nong Shu, this plum was designated as a royal tribute fruit during the Ming Dynasty by the Jiajing Emperor, earning the name "Jade Emperor" in its honor.
A "Peelable" Plum:
Unlike most plums, the Yuhuang Li has thin, tender skin that can be peeled away when fully ripe, revealing golden-yellow flesh that is soft, juicy, and honey-sweet. One bite transports you back to ancient orchards—this is a taste of history.
Flavor & Nutrition:
Sweet with a subtle tang when eaten with the skin, the flesh offers a rich, honey-like sweetness with Brix levels of 12–14%. A 2023 academic study also revealed that the Yuhuang Li ranks among the top plum cultivars for carotenoid content, indicating high antioxidant and nutritional value.
Appearance:
The fruit is heart-shaped to round, with a beautiful golden-yellow skin dusted with a silvery-white bloom. The flesh is yellow, fine, and exceptionally juicy.
Size:
Average weight ranges from 60g to 77.5g, with large fruits exceeding 85g.
Harvest Season:
Available from mid-June to early July in southern regions and mid-August to early September in northern regions. A limited seasonal treasure that captures the essence of summer.
