Tarocco Orange

The Tarocco orange, a variety of blood orange cultivated primarily in Italy, is highly regarded for its sweet and flavorful taste. Tarocco oranges are one of the world's most popular oranges due to their juiciness, lack of seeds, and high vitamin C content. Aesthetically, they are medium-sized with a somewhat spheroid shape. The skin is a bright orange color, occasionally with a red blush but is typically thinner than that of other oranges, making it easier to peel.

The scent profile of the Tarocco orange is immensely rich and aromatic. It embodies a delightful citrus fragrance that is more intense and complex than regular oranges. Notes of raspberry or strawberry can often be detected, inherent to blood oranges, adding a unique depth that differentiates it from other citrus scents. This slightly floral and sweet aroma, paired with an undercurrent of tangy sharpness, creates a balanced, refreshing, and inviting olfactory experience, making the Tarocco orange a popular choice for culinary uses, essential oils, and aromatherapy.
