Besides mandarins and clementines: Sicilian Satsumas Miyagawa and Tagor Ortanique

Satsuma Miyagawa represent a variety of mandarins with exotic charm, carefully cultivated in the best citrus groves of Sicily. This fruit is distinguished by its tender flesh, with a sweet and slightly sour flavour that makes it unique and irresistible. Seedless and with a thin, easy-to-remove skin, they are perfect for those seeking convenience and taste in a single product. The cultivation of this fruit combines local tradition with characteristics reminiscent of the Orient, offering an authentic product rich in beneficial properties. Their richness in vitamin C and fibre contributes to general well-being, supporting the immune system and promoting healthy digestion.

Tangor Ortanique, on the other hand, is a natural hybrid citrus fruit, the result of a cross between a sweet orange (Citrus sinensis) and a mandarin (Citrus reticulata). Discovered in Jamaica around 1920, its name is derived from the combination of ‘or’ (orange), ‘tan’ (mandarin) and ‘ique’ (unique), underlining its distinctive characteristics. It offers several health and culinary benefits: rich in vitamin C and antioxidant, it strengthens the immune system, protects against free radicals and promotes healthy skin.
