Amalfi Lemons IGP
Known as the queen of lemons, these are the specialty produce of the Amalfi Coast, where the wonderfully large and fragrant fruit grows high up in the mountains as well as on cliff-side terraces. The superior aromatic potency of the lemon rinds is unrivaled.
Scientifically known as the Sfusato Amalfitano, the Amalfi lemons are protected by the Consorzio di Tutela del Limone Costa d’Amalfi I.G.P.
The harvest takes place between February and October. Every lemon is hand picked with the upmost care in the villages of Amalfi, Positano, Atrani, Minori, Maiori, Cetara, Conca dei Marini, Ravello, Tramonti, Praiano, Scala, Furore and Vietri Sul Mare.
