Red Anjou pears have a mild and sweet flavor and I find the Red Anjous pears to be a bit sweeter in taste than regular pears.
Although there's not much difference in the taste between Red Anjou pears and regular pears but to me the Red Anjou pears taste slight bit sweeter.
When ripe the Red Anjou pears have a very smooth texture to them and abundant juices.
You can also ripen Red Anjou pears at room temperature so if you pick some or have some Red Anjou pears that are not fully ripe then allowing the Red Anjou pears to sit out at room temperature for a few days or so will allow them to ripen fully.
Red Anjou pears grow in the Pacific northwest where the climate is perfect for the growth of the pears.
However you can usually grow Red Anjou pears in just about any climate.
