Product description

Origin: Gros Michel Bananas entered the historical record in the 1830s when a French planter, Jean Pouyat, noticed the plant growing on the Caribbean island of Martinique. Locally, it became known as the Martinique banana. It spread through the Caribbean and beyond. This variety used to be grown commercially but now is extremely rare and difficult to find. We grow Gros Michel extremely small scale here in Florida using permaculture methods which means that they may not be super large and thick like what you may be used to if you remember eating this variety back when it was available in stores.

Flavor Profile: This banana may be compared to a Cavendish in flavor, though the history makes this a very popular banana amongst fruit lovers!

How to eat

Ensure you are ripening bananas at 70 degrees Fahrenheit or above. Always go by softness and easiness to peel. They may or may not have spots when they are ready.
