Citrus fruits in Sicily are a pillar of agriculture and represent a profound bond between the land,

the climate and culture of the island. Their cultivation and use tell a story of tradition, innovation and love for the fruits of their land.

Introduced during the Arab domination, these fruits thrive thanks to the Mediterranean climate and the volcanic soil of Etna.

Citrus flowers have an intense and inebriating scent, they bloom in spring filling the air with an aroma that immediately evokes Mediterranean landscapes and centuries-old traditions.

In Sicilian culture, orange blossom has a profound meaning, it represents purity, rebirth and beauty, and is often used in weddings as a symbol of good omen.

It is much more than a flower: it is a symbol of elegance and cultural richness of Sicily, a key element of its agricultural tradition and an icon of its olfactory and gastronomic heritage.
