Uses
A seedless, sweet tangerine named after its bright orange, slightly bumpy rind. This hybrid is a cross between two noncommercial tangerine varieties: the Wilking and Kincy, by the University of California at Riverside. The Gold Nugget is a great juicer, averaging a 50% juice content. The fruit itself is a deep orange color with a moderately fine texture. Considered by professional taste panels to be one of the very best flavored citrus’ in the world, Gold Nugget Tangerines have a rich, sweet, full-bodied taste. Product of California.
Selection, Storage and Handling
