The William Pear is a classic variety of English pear, particularly cherished for its sweet, juicy flavour and tender texture. Recognisable by its elongated shape and smooth greenish-yellow skin, often blushed with a hint of red, the William Pear is a staple in kitchens across the country.
Ideal for both fresh eating and cooking, this pear ripens in late summer and early autumn. Its versatility shines in desserts, juices, and salads, offering a delicate balance of sweetness and subtle acidity. When perfectly ripe, the flesh is buttery and fragrant, making it a favourite for pear crumbles and tarts.
Beyond its delicious taste, the William Pear tree is valued in gardens for its reliable productivity and beautiful spring blossoms. Whether enjoyed straight from the tree or incorporated into recipes, the William Pear remains a timeless fruit that celebrates the bounties of British orchards.
