Description
This naturalist stamp highlights the Asli variety, one of the sweetest and most fragrant in Tunisia. The illustration shows a laden fruit tree and a branch bearing red-cheeked apricots.

It celebrates the arboricultural tradition, particularly in the Kairouan and coastal regions. The “Asli” apricot (term meaning “original” or “pure”) represents the excellence of the Tunisian fruit terroir and the sweetness of Mediterranean life.
