The plumcot is a hybrid between the apricot and the plum. Its appearance is very similar to that of a plum in size, texture and color but its flavor is a delicious mix between a plum and an apricot.

It is grown primarily in Andalusia.

It contains bioflavonoids and mineral salts, making it a natural antioxidant.

The best way to consume plumcot is to eat it raw. But it can also be eaten boiled or dried. It is also a fruit widely used for the preparation of preserves and marmalades.

The ideal way to store plumcots is to store them in a cool place, like the fridge. To enjoy their exquisite flavor, it is better to take them out of the fridge a little before eating them, especially if they are ripe.
