Dutch vegetable breeding company Nunhem recently attended the first fruit attraction owned by its parent company BASF. At the exhibition, among other products, Kisy, a watermelon variety, was also promoted. This is a "personalized" watermelon that weighs 600 to 900 grams.

"this Kisy watermelon is really unique. There are other mini watermelons on the market. However, none of these are in such a format and these easy-to-eat attributes, Hansderleisen said. Kisy is a seedless watermelon with a beautiful, thin, dark green skin. Its crimson meat is easy to eat. It also has a Brix level of 9 to 11. "

"it's easy to eat this seedless watermelon with a spoon, just like eating an ice cream sundae. Its easy to eat properties also make it an ideal choice for making watermelon cocktails. Therefore, we mainly focus on the catering industry. Here, we position this line as a cocktail melon, "Hans explained.

"when the weather is fine, you have a melon that looks good. As a result, people are prepared to pay more added value for this unique cocktail melon. At the same time, a variety of Kisy has been developed for the retail industry. Here, the focus is on strong dark green skin. Its maximum Brix level is 12. This ensures the sweetness needed for a wonderful eating experience. Hans concluded: "it's a healthy, thirsty snack."

The weight of watermelon is between 650g and 950g, the skin is deep, the flesh is ruddy, and the sugar content of Bailey is 10-11o. Kisy is a completely new concept because it is easy to peel off and can be eaten in many different formats and situations.

"Kisy adapts perfectly to the new trend of healthy snacks because its compact size makes it easy to buy and transport and has a long shelf life," the company said. "it tastes good and is very suitable for eating at home and out of home."

The variety was planted in Spain between April and August and is currently sold in the UK, France, Germany and the United Arab Emirates.
