Have you ever heard of the lemons we use for our Lemon Spread ? Their history is as fascinating as their flavor! Sorrento Lemons, also known as "Ovale di Sorrento" or "Massese", have deep roots that date back to Roman times. Numerous paintings and mosaics found in the excavations of Pompeii and Herculaneum depict lemons very similar to those we know today as Sorrento Lemons. A true journey through time, which enriches every bite with history and tradition.

Why Choose Sorrento Lemon?

Sorrento Lemon is known throughout the world for its quality and unique flavor. This citrus fruit, grown in the fertile lands of the Sorrento Peninsula, is characterized by a thick peel rich in essential oils, which give it an unmistakable aroma. The pulp is juicy and has a balanced flavor, perfect for creating our Lemon Spread, which brings with it all the freshness and fragrance of these extraordinary lemons.

Sorrento Lemons vs. Amalfi Lemons

People often wonder what the difference is between Sorrento Lemons and Amalfi Lemons. Both are of the highest quality and appreciated all over the world, but they have some distinctive characteristics. The Sorrento Lemon, as already mentioned, has a thicker peel and a more intense aroma, while the Amalfi Lemon, also known as "Sfusato Amalfitano", has a more elongated shape and a thinner peel. Both are perfect for use in the kitchen, but the Sorrento Lemon is particularly suitable for preparations that require a peel rich in essential oils, such as our Spreadable Cream.
