CitrusRicus's best-selling products

We didn't decide this selection in a meeting. The repeat orders did: what someone tries once and asks for again once it runs out. If this is your first time buying from us, it's a good place to start.

What tops the list

The tree sponsorship. Sponsor an orange or a tangerine tree and your fruit is settled for the whole season, shipping included, and sponsors come back season after season. It's what we're asked for most, by a wide margin. Behind it come the mixed boxes, for anyone who wants several fruits at once, and the things that sit beside them on the table: orange blossom honey, olive oil, marmalade.

What happens when the box arrives

The first thing you notice is the smell, before you've even opened it. The oranges don't shine, because they carry no wax and no post-harvest chemicals, but they have weight to them. That weight is juice. The skin may carry a wind mark or a patch of sun. In a supermarket that's called a flaw. Here it's called a natural product.

If you're ordering for the first time

Start with a small box or a jar of honey. Plenty of customers write to say they'd spent years buying oranges without giving it much thought, and noticed the difference from the first one. And if something goes wrong, a person with a first and last name replies, not a form.
