- Touch the skin. The skin of a ripe avocado should give slightly to the touch. If it is too hard, it will not be ripe. If it is too soft, it may be overripe and start to go rancid.

I bought 1 kilo of these Organic Avocados from Los Realejos, and they're truly incredible. They have that nutty flavor that avocados from here give you when they're ripe.
