Quince
Quince is one of the most beloved and historically celebrated fruits across the Mediterranean and Anatolia, with a cultivation legacy dating back nearly 4,000 years. Its rich nutrients and wholesome qualities have supported human health and child immune development for generations.
With an exceptionally versatile culinary and aromatic profile, quince was even used in Roman times for crafting perfumes, essential oils, and infused honeys. While naturally firm and fiber-rich, quinces cultivated in warmer Mediterranean microclimates yield softer, juicier, and more succulent textures.
In Turkey, three principal varieties lead commercial production: Esme, Lemon, and Ekmek quince. Esme quince from the Marmara region is renowned for its juicy, pleasantly tart flavor. Ekmek quince features balanced sweetness, while Lemon quince provides refreshing tanginess. Meypal carefully sorts, sizes, and exports premier Turkish quinces worldwide.
"With its 4,000-year heritage, heavenly floral fragrance, and golden perfection, Anatolian quince is nature's timeless gift of health."
