Shi Tou Di Pineapple

Hailing from Taiwan's nutrient-rich volcanic soil, the Shi Tou Di Pineapple (Stone Pineapple) is prized as one of the sweetest pineapples in the market.

Each Shi Tou Di Pineapple is bursting with intense tropical sweetness, boasting golden-yellow flesh that’s exceptionally juicy and low in acidity. Its firm yet tender texture and fragrant aroma make it a standout whether eaten fresh or used in recipes.

Grown under the renowned Shitoudi brand by Taiwan Nongyiyuan Co., Ltd., these premium pineapples are carefully nurtured in the company’s own growing center—ensuring every fruit is harvested only at peak ripeness.

Now exported to Japan and other discerning markets, the Shi Tou Di Pineapple has quickly gained recognition for its consistent quality and rich flavour—thanks to meticulous quality control and a farmer-first philosophy that values taste over speed-to-market.

STORAGE

Keep Shi Tou Di Pineapples in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Once cut, store leftover pieces in an airtight container in the refrigerator to preserve freshness and sweetness.

FUN FACTS & TIPS
