Jump to navigation Jump to search

Pear nectars contain juice from pears (wikipedia). EU legislation requires a minimum of 50% pear fraction and a maximum of 99%.

The category has been subdivided in Squeezed pear nectars, for nectars that use pear juice, and pear nectars from concentrate for juice that has been first dehydrated and later hydrated.

It might be possible to create a subdivision based on the pear variety (esp. Williams).
