Product description

The Valencia is the summer orange. 🍊 It ripens from mid-April to late June, when all other varieties are gone, with a light-colored, very juicy and sweet pulp.

It has a light orange, medium-thick rind, and a juice yield that none of our other varieties can match. It grows in Scordia and stays on the tree until the very last moment, because it's precisely during the warm weeks that it finishes developing its sugars.

Characteristics

  • Light and very juicy pulp
  • Sweet and sugary taste
  • Light orange, medium-thick rind
  • Late variety, the only one available in late spring

How to use it

  • 🥤 Juice: its best use, very high yield
  • 🧊 Granitas and sorbets: sweet juice, very low acidity
  • 🍊 In wedges: fresh from the fridge on hot days
  • 🥗 In salads: with fennel and red onion

📅 Season: from April 15th to June 30th.

🚚 We harvest upon order and ship within 24 hours.

Product storage

Store oranges in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place, away from heat sources and direct sunlight. Keep them in one or two layers, in a wide basket, without stacking them: the weight will bruise the fruits underneath, and that's where mold starts.

In warmer months, storage outside the refrigerator shortens to about ten days. If your home temperature exceeds twenty degrees Celsius, place them in the refrigerator's fruit drawer, where they will last up to two weeks, and take them out an hour before consuming them.

Check the basket every few days and immediately remove any bruised fruit, as it will contaminate those next to it. Wash the fruit before consuming it. If you want to use the peel in cooking, first check that the product has not been treated after harvesting.
