I have reviewed several different varieties of grapes this season. I have talked about some really small grapes, the Champagne and the Lakemont. Now I am going to talk about the biggest seedless grape on the market, the Holiday grape. The only other grape that can match it in size are the globe grapes and those have some good size seeds. These grapes are grown in the San Joaquin area of Central California.
My Experience with these grapes
Tart/Sweet: Sweet
Seed/Seedless: Seedless
Grape Flavor (Rating Scale 1-10): 7
Overall Feeling: These grapes are sweet, juicy, and flavorful. These skins are thin, so they aren’t the most crisp grape I have had. They need to be store in the crispier drawer of your fridge to give them the longest possible life.
Availability: I purchased mine at Plum Market in Ann Arbor, Michigan. These grapes are a late season variety that is available for only a few weeks between the beginning of October and the middle of November. Get them while you can.

It seems a shame that we cant create an enviroment where these wonderful grapes could be enjoyed on the 4th of July. I love them. Peace
