    Piel de Sapo is the name you might know them as. Shaped like a rugby ball, dark green with sort of rough veining on the outside of the skin.

    they are very nice when properly ripe. Sweet but not too sweet and they don't have fluffy flesh and they are very water rich (like all melon but without being grainy). I'm explaining that badly!

    I had half of another one for supper.

    Both of my dogs and my Siamese cat like them too :)

    that's how it tasted when i had it. i wasn't crazy about it and since it was SUPER expensive... i never got another.

    They are large and not expensive in the UK. I think they mostly come from Spain.

    Hello Aleesha,

    I was thinking about that the other day and wondered if I should email you to ask if Parz sent it. It hasn't arrived yet. When was it sent?
