The Oro Blanco is a unique and delightful “sweet grapefruit,” a hybrid that combines the best traits of its parents. It offers large, easy-to-peel fruit with sweet, almost bitter-free white flesh, making it the perfect choice for those who love the grapefruit aroma but prefer a much milder, sweeter taste.

• A grapefruit-pomelo hybrid producing large, round fruit with a thick, smooth, greenish-yellow rind that peels easily.

• Flesh is pale yellow to white, exceptionally sweet, juicy, and very low in acid and bitterness, providing a truly mild grapefruit experience.

• Nearly seedless and easy to segment, with a tender, melting texture.

• A large, vigorous evergreen tree that can reach substantial size but is well-suited to warm, frost-free climates.

• Fruit ripens in mid-winter (December-February), offering a sweet citrus treat during the cooler months.

• Ideal for fresh eating out of hand, in fruit salads, or for those who find traditional grapefruit too tart.

Flavor Profile:

• Flavor: Sweet and mild with subtle floral and honey notes; the acidity and characteristic grapefruit bitterness are barely perceptible.

• Texture: Juicy, soft, and very tender.

• Best Uses: The ultimate “beginner’s” or “sweet” grapefruit for fresh eating. Also excellent in fruit salads or as a less tart juice base.
