Navel chocolate orange – frozen

Description

A few years ago, a grower in a citrus orchard in Valencia discovered brown-coloured oranges on a navel tree whilst the fruit on his other trees had the usual orange colour. He decided to have the brown oranges analysed and the result was surprising! The brown-coloured oranges turned out to be better in quality and flavour than the other oranges.

The grower was excited to propagate this new variety through grafting and developed a new viable variety that was named “navel chocolate”

The Navel Chocolate oranges have a sweeter taste than regular navel oranges, have a lower acidity and are also juicier. They have a brix (sugar content) of 12 – making them one of the sweetest oranges on the market!

In addition, they also have a longer shelf life, which makes this variety an exclusive top quality variety.
