Surprise
Every time it is a surprise what kind of organic lemons arrive from Sicily at Paulies Ginger. They vary in color, taste, size, amount of juice. This time we have very large lemons, they are three times as big as the lemons you find here in the local supermarkets.
Sicily
Lemons from Sicily are known for their excellent quality and taste. Sicily's Mediterranean climate, with its mild winters and warm summers, provides ideal conditions for growing lemon trees. The fertile soil and abundant sunshine contribute to the development of juicy, aromatic lemons.
Color and Variation
Lemons from Sicily vary in color, size and shape. Generally they have a bright yellow to light orange skin, which can change during the ripening process. The peel may also be a bit rougher than that of commercial lemons due to the natural growing process. The size of the lemons can vary, even within the same season. This may be due to factors such as weather, soil conditions and the specific variety of lemon.
Overall, Sicily's unique climatic and geographical conditions contribute to the diversity and excellent quality of the lemons grown there.
