The Story Behind It

The Tarocco Blood Orange has its roots in Sicily, where blood oranges have been cultivated for centuries. Unlike the Moro, which is bold and tangy, or the Sanguinelli, which is deeply sweet, the Tarocco is known for its perfect balance and refined flavor.

Often called the “queen of blood oranges,” the Tarocco has earned worldwide acclaim as the most flavorful and versatile of the group. Its lighter red flesh and sweeter taste make it the most family-friendly blood orange you can grow.

When you plant a Tarocco Blood Orange Tree, you’re growing the sweetest and most celebrated of Italy’s citrus treasures.
