Organic quality you can taste

The fruit comes from a long-standing Ja! Natürlich partner farm that practises certified organic farming in the Spanish region of Alicante – a region with a long tradition of citrus cultivation. In terms of taste, the tiger lemon is somewhere between a lemon and a bergamot. It has a distinctive acidity, but is less intense than classic lemons. It gets its name from its striking yellow-green striped skin. It is perfect for drinks, desserts or salads that require a balanced acidic note. The Ja! Natürlich tiger lemon can also be enjoyed on its own.

A fresh addition for anyone who likes to cook creatively

"Our tiger lemon is a wonderful addition to the Ja! Natürlich range and will particularly appeal to those who like to cook fresh and creative dishes. It shows how versatile organic produce can be – aromatic, high-quality and grown in a resource-efficient way. Our priority is always to offer food that is good for the body and the environment," says Klaudia Atzmüller, Managing Director of Ja! Natürlich, delighted with the new addition.
