Chinotto is a beautiful variety of vigorous plant belonging to the collection of oranges, with a slow growth.

It is characterized by very short, dark green, pointed and rounded leaves that make it indistinguishable.

Flowers are small white zagare with yellow inside and very scented which grow either in groups at the ends of the branches, or with single flowers close to the stem. 

Fruits similar to tangerines are made of an orange,  moderately juicy, bitter pulp with few seeds.

 

Its essence is very popular and sought-after in perfumery.

In the kitchen, the pulp is used for the condiments of various dishes.

The plant produces small bitter fruits, traditionally used to produce jams, candied fruit and syrups.

Chinotto is a very ornamental for the rich flowering and for the attractive and scented fruits.
