The Queen of Sicilian Oranges: La Tarocco
Considered by connoisseurs to be the best orange in the world. The Tarocco variety is a "semi-blood orange" that derives its exceptional sweetness and unique aroma from the volcanic terroir of Mount Etna.
Why is the Tarocco superior?
- Unparalleled Sweetness: This is the sweetest of blood oranges. Its flesh is meltingly tender, juicy, and has a perfect balance of sweetness and acidity.
- Marbled Flesh: Unlike the Moro (very red), the Tarocco offers an orange flesh delicately streaked with ruby. A feast for the eyes.
- Ideal for eating fresh: Thanks to its thin skin and almost complete absence of seeds, it can be enjoyed both in wedges and as pressed juice.

💡 The Neary Council:
Tarocco potatoes are delicate because their skin is thin. Opting for the 5kg pack allows you to have a good supply, but remember to keep them refrigerated (vegetable drawer) to maintain their crispness and juiciness.
