| Description: | When is the Sumo Citrus Season?Sumo Citrus, a unique and delicious fruit, is seasonally available from January through April every year. It's a special treat to look forward to during these months, ensuring you have a fresh and healthy snack option.Where is Sumo Citrus Grown?The cultivation of Sumo Citrus is exclusive to the San Joaquin Valley of California, with partner growers in Australia. This specific growing location contributes to the fruit's unique taste and quality.What Sets Sumo Citrus Apart?Sumo Citrus stands out due to its large size and exceptional sweetness. It is seedless, easy to peel, and has a distinctive top "knot". These features make it a unique and convenient snack option.Why is Sumo Citrus Pricier than Average Oranges?The Sumo Citrus, while easy to love, is the most challenging citrus to cultivate. Each tree requires four years of constant care before it produces any fruit. The delicate nature of this fruit demands more expertise and gentle handling than any other citrus. Each tree is groomed by hand every year, and the fruits are hand-picked and hand-packed. Even the transportation process is designed to ensure a smooth ride for the Sumo Citrus.Consistency in Taste and Appearance of Sumo CitrusRegardless of size, each Sumo Citrus is picked only when perfectly ripe, ensuring consistent flavor. The fruit may exhibit slight variations in appearance such as discoloration, scarring, or spotting, and variations in the size of the "top knot". These variations do not affect the quality or flavor of the fruit. The peel can vary from coarse to smooth, and a looser rind indicates easier peeling.Storing and Seeding of Sumo CitrusSumo Citrus prefers cooler temperatures and good air circulation for storage. Although typically seedless, it's possible to find a seed or two in your Sumo Citrus due to natural cross-pollination. However, this does not impact the taste or quality of the fruit. Can be stored ambient or refrigerated Quantity: ~6 per box Rinse before eating Net weight: 3 lbs. |
