Vaniglia Apirena

C.T. Arancia Ribera DOP

Vaniglia Apirena

It is a blonde cultivar without a navel and originated from a bud mutation of Vanilla with seed, which took place in the Ribera area and subsequently spread throughout the area under the name of Ribera seedless Vanilla. It is the only vanilla variety with very low acidity (acid-less 0.06 - 0.15%), seedless and with reduced thickness from the films of the wedges existing in the world. The fruit can be harvested from December to May. The seedless vanilla orange is preferred and recommended for those who suffer from gastric and intestinal disorders, as it has a very low acid content. The spheroidal fruit is medium in size. The peel is light orange in color, with an average papillate surface, of medium thickness, easy to remove. The pulp, without seeds, is light orange in color, tender, pulpy and very sweet, not acidic, with a delicate taste reminiscent of vanilla. The analysis of the sensory profiles confirms the dominance of the vanilla flavor, a medium crunchiness and gustative persistence.
