“This strawberry stays in your mouth, it’s impressive!” »: the Plougastel floriguette hits the shelves

“It is very sweet, its scent is both very subtle and very persistent. This strawberry stays in your mouth, it’s impressive! » With its bright red color, and its conical shape less elongated than the gariguette, the floriguette has continued to seduce Pierrick L’Eost, 49, market gardener in Loperhet (Finistère) and strawberry producer at Savéol since 2009. The Finistère cooperative, of which he is vice-president, is launching a new strawberry on the market for good this spring. Rather early, it has the advantage of filling the gap in gariguette production, which arrives between mid-May and mid-June.
