Citrus × tangelo
The tangelo is a hybrid citrus, a cross between a mandarin and a grapefruit (or a pomelo), developed in the United States at the end of the 19th century; the Minneola variety, recognisable by its small neck, is the best known. Its zest combines the sweetness of mandarin with the light bitterness of grapefruit.
What it brings
