The orange is a hybrid (indicated by the “x” in the Latin name) of a mandarin and a pomelo. It originally came from Southeast Asia – the North German name Apfelsine means “apple from China” – and was likely introduced to Sicily by the Arabs. The balance between the juice aroma and essential oil from the orange peel is a crucial element of this fruity, refreshing spirit. This is why it’s so time-consuming to produce: as with most other citrus fruits, the juice is pressed after the orange zest has been finely peeled. This is done because both ingredients contribute quite different flavours to the bouquet and taste experience. Limonene is the dominant note in the peel oil, while fresh orange juice contains more than 200 components, with esters, aldehydes and terpene hydrocarbons dominating the overall aroma. When blended, they make this orange spirit something unique and unforgettable, whether you drink it neat or mixed, or eat it drizzled over ice cream as a dessert.
