The Story Behind It
The Chandler Pomelo was bred in California in the mid-20th century as an improvement on traditional pomelos, which could be variable in quality. By crossing Siamese pink and Siamese red pomelos, researchers created a reliable, sweet, and consistently delicious fruit.
Unlike grapefruit, which descended from pomelo, the Chandler retains the pomelo’s natural sweetness and low acidity. Its massive fruit, pink flesh, and balanced flavor make it one of the most popular pomelos grown worldwide.
