Organic oranges

The orange is an excellent dessert fruit, rich in vitamin C and P as well as calcium and phosphates. The covering peel preserves cleanness, hygiene and dressed with sugar gives good jams. The peel is also used in the pastry shop and provides fragrances for liqueurs, perfumes and drugs.

The oranges can be broadly divided in two main varieties: blond and red. The most common are Navelina, Ovale and Valencia as blond and Tarocco, Moro and Sanguinello as red.

 

Navelina: harvest period ranges from October to February gradually increasing its sugar contents (Brix). Its peel can be thin or of a medium thickness; its colour yellow or red according to the maturation stage.

Ovale: harvest period ranges from March to June, has an elliptic shape, a golden yellow colour with thin or medium peel.

Valencia: harvest period ranges from March to June, has a spherical shape, red pale colour with thick or wrinkled peel.
