Golden Spud for the UK

"Mayan Gold" is apparently the first direct Peruvian-origin potato to be commercially grown in the UK, according to Greenvale AP, said to be the UK's largest purveyor of fresh potatoes, including seed potatoes. The yellowish new spud derives from the Phurejas variety of Peru---high altitude varieties such as Phurejas must be worked with over many years, in this case 15, in order for a varietal appropriate for growing at more or less sea level to be successful.
