Syracuse PGI Lemon
The ideal climate for fragrance, juice and essential oils.
Sicily accounts for 90% of Italy’s lemon-growing area, and the Syracuse area represents more than 34% of Italian lemon production.
The ‘Femminello Siracusano’ cultivar has found the ideal climate here to express its finest characteristics. The name ‘femminello’ comes from the fertility of the plant, which flowers several times during the year.
