The tangerine peel in this award-winning traditional dessert is handmade with the highly aromatic Chios Mandarin. This tangerine variety is so special it has a Protected Geographical Indication (PGI). You'll notice a more intense flavor and fragrance than the tangerines we know in the States. Whole pieces of peel float in a simple, all-natural syrup of sugar, water, and lemon juice. No preservatives or additives, just a healthy Mediterranean Diet dessert to enjoy straight or as a topping on your favorite treats.
For foodies with a sweet tooth, Citrus Scent of Memory offers marmalades and fruit preserves that transport you to the Greek island of Chios.
We chose Citrus for the way they have exalted the rare variety of Chian Mandarin, a PGI product, and for the passion they bring to all of their exclusive small-batch products. We love that we can help the team bring the rich history of the Greek island of Chios into a more contemporary, dynamic present here in the States.
