Citrus Indica

Bitter, wild, vital, and endangered, Citrus Indica (Memang Narang) is the world’s most sacred orange. Protecting this ancient fruit—and others like it—is crucial for preserving the diversity that ensures the future of global citrus. In collaboration with BBC food journalist Dan Saladino, we created a Delight to showcase California’s rare and wild citrus and replicate the flavor of the sacred “Fruit of the Ghosts.” 

To capture the bracing wildness of the world’s rarest orange, we set out to sustainably recreate the complex flavor of Citrus Indica with rare and uncommon local fruit varieties. We started with bitter, fresh-juiced Seville oranges from Lagier Ranches in Escalon, CA, then blended in early-harvest Page mandarins for juicy sweetness and fragrant richness. Wild Carrizo citrange juice added fragrant complexity, and we freeze-dried the thick peels for a bright orange coating and bracing finish.

Infused with sun-grown local indica flower with 5 MG of THC, this Delight showcases rare California citrus—an effort to support local biodiversity so that we never have to live in a world without it.

20 Delights per package or 100mg of THC per package
