🛍 Product Information：
Organic Clementines from Sicily are seedless, easy-to-peel mandarins grown in the volcanic soil and bathed in Mediterranean sunshine of Sicily, Italy. These petite citrus fruits are exceptionally juicy with thin, glossy skin and a perfect balance of intense sweetness and refreshing aroma. Certified organic under strict EU standards, they are cultivated without synthetic pesticides or chemical fertilizers, delivering pure, authentic flavor. Harvested at their peak from November to February, Sicilian clementines are often called “winter’s sweetest jewels” and are among Europe’s most cherished seasonal citrus fruits.
Mandarin Orange, or written as tangerine, is a fruit of the genus Citrus in the Rutaceae family. It is native to southern China, Indochina, Myanmar and other places. In the Fujian dialect of Fuzhou, orange is called "ju", while in the Quanzhou dialect, orange is called "ganzi". In the dialects of the southwestern Mandarin area, it is called "ganzi" or "ganer", and some dialects call it "jugan". The specific epithet "reticuluma" means "reticulated". The national standard of the People's Republic of China calls it "citrus".
Often simply called clementines, they are small, round fruits from citrus trees. As a unique orange, it is often eaten as is or added to fruit salads. Tangerines are small and oblate, unlike the sweet orange (a cross between a mandarin orange and a grapefruit), which is roughly spherical in shape. The flavor is sweeter and richer than regular oranges. Ripe oranges are firm to slightly soft, large and heavy, with a pebbly peel. The peel is thin and loose, with little white mesocarp, so it is usually easier to peel and separate into pieces.
The flavor of mandarin orange is stronger and sweeter than that of sweet orange. Oranges can be eaten peeled or used in salads, desserts and main dishes. Fresh oranges are used in the making of Mandarine Napoléon liqueur.
The peel can be used fresh, whole, or as the peel, or dried and used as tangerine peel. It can be used as a spice in cooking, baking, beverages or confectionery. The essential oil from the fresh peel is used as a flavoring in candies, gelatin, ice cream, chewing gum, and baked goods. It is used as a flavoring in some liqueurs.
