Organic Pomelo from Domaine de la Taste
Corsican grapefruit: An exceptional fruit, full of sunshine
At the Domaines de la Taste, we are pleased to present our organic Corsican grapefruit, made from the Star Ruby variety. This exceptional fruit is the only French grapefruit, and its quality is recognized thanks to the Protected Geographical Indication (PGI) which guarantees its origin and unique terroir. With its yellow skin and juicy, pink or red flesh, our pomelo is hand-picked around April, when its colour is at its peak.
A fruit full of vitamins and freshness
Seedless, with juicy, pink or red flesh, and bright yellow skin, our organic pomelo is a pleasure for the senses: sweet, delicately tangy, and bursting with freshness.
A concentrate of vitamins to start the day off right
The grapefruit is not only delicious, but it is also a real vitamin C powerhouse, with 37 mg per 100 g. This makes it a great alternative to oranges, while containing half the sugar. Perfect for starting the day with energy, this juicy fruit can be enjoyed for breakfast or as a snack.
The promise of a fresh and natural product
We do not store our fruit in cold rooms: it is picked on demand and shipped directly to your home in eco-responsible cardboard boxes. With optimal storage, you can enjoy our grapefruit for up to 15 days after harvesting.
An organic fruit, respectful of the environment and your health
Since 2016, our grapefruit has been grown according to the principles of Organic Farming, without any chemicals or preservative treatments. We naturally protect them with clay, which sometimes leaves a light white dust on the skin, a sign of their cultivation in the open air under the Corsican sun. Our fruits are hand-picked, without wax or preservatives, and their skin can even be used to cook delicious recipes.
