Taylor's Gold was first discovered in 1986 in an orchard owned by Michael King-Turner in Motueka. This gourmet Comice pear is distinguished by its golden, russeted skin and ivory to cream-colored flesh. It boasts an excellent flavor, characterized by a juicy, delicate, buttery taste. Taylor's Gold is a later-ripening variety, typically ready for harvest in April. For optimal pollination, it is best paired with Beurre Bosc, Williams bon Chretien, Winter Nelis, Winter Cole, and Packham's Triumph.
