Longan

$0.00

Known as the "dragon's eye" across Southeast Asia, longan offers a delicate sweetness and floral aroma that's more subtle than its cousin, the lychee. A symbol of prosperity and abundance in Chinese, Thai, and Vietnamese cultures, it's traditionally enjoyed fresh, in soups, or in warm desserts. Its cultural significance and limited seasonal window create strong demand among multicultural shoppers.
