Mount Longonot Vineyards

We're an export-oriented exotic tropical fruits orchard with lots of goats, some sheep, about a dozen beehives, and a whole lot of happiness. In 2024, we're making our maiden voyage with the export debut of our Great Rift Valley Purple Passion Fruit! This Passiflora Edulis pilot crop features the Misty Gems subvarietal known to be the tastiest of all purple passion fruits - a gem true to its name. The pulp varies in color from bright yellow to more of a pumpkin color, and it has all the tell-tale small, hard, black seeds of passion fruit's own eponym. The inside wall of the Misty Gem is white. Its flavor profile is refreshing, guava-like and tangy. Eaten by the spoonful directly from the shell, the pulp can also be used on pavlovas, cheesecakes, fruit flans and icing. Passion fruit mojitos are our personal favorite way to make use of its lush tropical appeal. After so much time off the grid in paradise, we can't wait to make new friends on the grid! If you're an exotic fruit importer across Europe or the Middle East, we have jokes to tell, sagas to narrate, and personality to entertain - we promise! DM us to learn more about our projected production volumes, export logistics, or simply about how our resident giraffes Ferdinand, Beatrice, and Fluffybutt are doing. Or, if you're just a lover for the sweet tang of passion fruit, we'd love for you to follow us here too so you can get your daily fix;)
