MINNEOLA

MINNEOLA
Originating in Florida, USA, it is known from the beginning of 1930s. It is the result of a cross between Duncan grapefruit with Dancy tangerine. The rind has not only exceptional colour, being reddish-orange, but also has a particularly fine, smooth texture and is an easypeeling. Minneolas have a unique and delicious flavour and have also a high percentage of juice. Large in size, the fruit has a round shape, with most fruits having a pronounced and distinctive neck, which leads to its immediate recognition by consumers. When grown in a solid block the fruit has few if any seeds.

Its harvesting period is from mid of June to the end of July.
