Royal Blenheims are an older variety. On the west coast, I think, most come from the Sacramento Valley. They ripen later than most of the larger varieties. You don't often see them in groceries, as they bruise easily and don't travel well. I usually get mine from the Embarcadero Farmers' Market in season, but I know that Monterey Market in Berkeley often has them, as well.
