The variety is a traditional regional crop, which is under study and conservation by the National Institute for Agricultural and Veterinary Research of Portugal. There is a possibility of identifying the variety under the name Coxa de Freira, which requires further clarification of the material.

The fruits of the variety are characterized by high sweetness with a total soluble solids content of about 17 ºBrix. The composition is rich in fructose, phenolic compounds, and flavonoids found in the pulp, skin, and seeds. The variety is included in studies evaluating susceptibility to fire blight Erwinia amylovora.

The variety is considered promising for the preservation of biodiversity, as well as for use in the food industry as a source of antioxidants and a natural sweetener.
