Tarocco Oranges
Product description
The Tarocco is the red orange that is eaten in segments. 🍊 Red-streaked pulp, thin skin that peels off easily by hand, full flavor and low acidity: it is the variety that ends up on the table in Sicily at the end of a meal.
It grows in Scordia, on volcanic soils. The cold winter nights give it its color, and the soil does the rest. Cultivation in these parts began in the early 1900s, between Catania and Syracuse, and the Tarocco has remained the island's best-selling orange.
