Avocado Varieties: Properties, Types & Calendar

At The Best, we select the finest avocado varieties to deliver freshness and quality all year round.

Avocado Properties

Avocado is a tropical fruit known for its many nutritional benefits. Rich in healthy fats, vitamins such as E and the B complex, and minerals like potassium, it’s an ideal ally for a balanced diet. Its creamy texture and mild flavour also make it perfect for countless culinary preparations.

Types of Avocados

At The Best, we offer the main avocado varieties available on the market:

  • Hass Avocado: The most popular variety, known for its pebbled skin and intense flavour. Ideal for salads, guacamole, and toast. Available almost year-round.
  • Fuerte Avocado: With smooth skin and a larger size, it stands out for a milder taste and great use in smoothies and desserts. Usually available in the winter months.
  • Bacon Avocado: Thin, bright-green skin with a delicate flavour. A seasonal variety, mainly available in autumn and winter.
