At Peris we are piel de sapo melon growers, a fruit whose secrets we know inside out, having been cultivating and marketing it since 1944.
Over these years we have achieved excellence and international recognition for the quality of our different piel de sapo melon brands.
The Peris piel de sapo melon varieties we grow are selected according to their adaptation to each geographical area and the quality they offer. Among the melon varieties we work with, we have the most outstanding ones on the market, such as Cordial (Grand Prix), Mesura, Valderas, Gran Rivero, Quijote, Valdemar and Valverde, among others.
The choice of the best melon variety depends on the location of the growing area, its climate and its resistance to pests and diseases. As specialists in piel de sapo melon cultivation, we know the plant's needs and are able to anticipate them during the three months that the melon plant's growth cycle lasts.
Originally, the comparison between the sweet golden interior of the melon and the most prized metal in our culture was a very popular distinguishing feature. The experience and satisfaction of a 18 Carat piel de sapo melon is etched in memory, where recollections are worth their weight in gold. It is impossible to compare it with other melons, because as we know by now, unique things have a personality that stands the test of time.
Vicentín is synonymous with a great-selection piel de sapo melon. Vicentín melons are the ultimate expression of each harvest, chosen one by one by our specialists according to their origin, shape, colour and flavour. The quality criteria that a piel de sapo melon must meet to become a Vicentín are so demanding that sometimes we do not have the right product and are forced to cancel orders.
This Peris rule is the origin of the Vicentín legend among lovers of the world's finest melons.
You can find Vicentín at the finest fruit shops in Spain and also in our online store.

Peris Gold melons uphold the tradition of our historic 'Oro de Cuiper' brand. In 1944, our founder, Vicente Peris, popularised Valencian marshland melons in the markets of Madrid and Barcelona, with their sweet and firm flesh due to their variety and cultivation in slightly saline soils. Years later, many people still remember and evoke those childhood flavours when enjoying our Peris Gold melons.
Peris Dolce is our most universal piel de sapo melon and is sold by hundreds of fruit shops across the country. It is harvested when the melons are at their optimal ripeness, presenting an optimal combination of vanilla aromas, crisp and golden flesh. These melons are carefully harvested and transported, and after a few days of rest are selected to carry the distinctive label of consistent quality, a guarantee of success and pleasure.
At Peris we are pioneers in the production of 4th range melon (IV gama) in a controlled atmosphere, and heat-shrink melon in half format, with growing sales, and trays of cut melon packaged in our white room, a product with a seven-day shelf life that is marketed under the Frutifresh and Peris brands.
