Ahh…Paris in the springtime.  The early morning chill is warmed with rich aromas of fresh bread wafting about street side cafes while the bustling streets are filled with conversation.  The Eiffel Tower standing heroically in the backdrop as a symbol of innovation and perseverance.   An experience anyone would not soon forget.  This is the inspiration for French Kiss. 

Eating a French Kiss Gourmet Charentais is an experience unlike any other melon.  Part western cantaloupe, part Charentais cantaloupe, the French Kiss is the definition of opulent delight.  With its ultra-sweet distinct cantaloupe flavor, absence of aftertaste, juicy flesh and subtle aroma the French Kiss invades the senses and leaves everyone wanting more.

Sandstone thrives on melons like French Kiss.  Melons like these are the reason we are so committed to providing our customers with great flavor and quality.  If the taste was not enough, French Kiss has characteristics only few melons can boast.  The shelf-life is 28 days and French Kiss develops peak flavor after sitting at room temperature for one to three days. 

Due to the limited purge and a toothpick thin rind, French Kiss can be used for fresh-cut and whole melon sales.  The exterior of French Kiss is striking, the sea-foam green sutures are a perfect balance to its golden net and when cut open, the intense orange meat invites the consumer to try a piece.

Each individual melon has an eye catching unique sticker with PLU #3306 and UPC barcode attached which allows easy check out.  Sandstone’s new 35-pound display ready box is classic and functional at the same time and is stacked 55 boxes per pallet.  All boxes are on 48” X 40” CHEP pallets with corner-boards and strapped for transport security.

Don’t leave it to us to proclaim the quality of French Kiss.  The French Kiss has wooed many to proclaim it’s the best tasting melon ever.  Recently upon its first appearance in Japan, the discerning consumers loved it.  These kind of flavorful and long shelf-life melons continue to drive Sandstone and we think they will drive customers wild as well
