Mandarin Clemenvilla

GENERAL DESCRIPTION:
Also known as mandarin Nova, it is a hybrid of clementine and tangelo (and the latter, in turn, of mandarin and grapefruit), from which it inherits a point of acidity and, occasionally, some shades of blood. Ovoid in shape, its average size is larger than that of most mandarins and at the same volume it also weighs more. It has smooth and shiny skin, thin thickness and its color is intense orange tending to reddish. Many consider it the delicatessen of mandarins for its extraordinary flavor, fine estopa and large amount of juice, although it is not peeled as easily as other mandarins. Like most mandarins, it can have a few seeds due to cross-pollination. Fantastic table mandarin although because it has a lot of juice it can also be used for this purpose.

CALIBER:
The average caliber of this variety is usually large, the vast majority of pieces are above 60 mm. The minimum commercial caliber in Naranjas de Cullera for this variety is 54 mm.

DURABILITY:
Once harvested, it is better preserved and for longer than other mandarins, up to 30 days, always following our instructions for its conservation: remove them immediately from the box, spread them on a large surface, with temperature and humidity not extreme, without direct sunlight or heat sources, and discarding any piece that may spoil. This is a general rule, taking into account that they are perishable and without post-harvest treatments, it is also possible that some piece will spoil before 30 days.

POSSIBLE INCONVENIENCES:
The shell is hard and gives it a certain difficulty to peel it with your hands. In advanced stages of ripening, the pulp tends to dry out. The presence of seeds is occasional, although in such a case it can be remarkable.
