Narrative
Raised in a seedbed by Auguste Benoist, Brissac, Maine-et-Loire, France. First fruited in 1861. Fruit above medium in size, generally ovate but quite irregular in form. Skin greenish-yellow in color with some russeting. Flesh fine, buttery or melting, juicy. Sweet aromatic flavor. Rather early in season. Tree fairly vigorous, semi-dwarf on quince. Moderately susceptible to fire blight. -- H. Hartman, Oregon Ag. Experiment Station, 1957 --

Not to be confused with Belle de Brissac, a different variety.
