These blood oranges grow on the fertile soil on the edge of the Etna volcano in Sicily. Tarocco is one of the most popular blood oranges and loved for its delicious fresh-sweet taste.

Origin
Tarocco blood oranges grow on the slopes of the Etna volcano. Due to the many volcanic eruptions, the soil there has become very fertile, as the ash that has descended on the land is extremely rich in minerals. These perfect conditions ensure that the Tarocco blood oranges have a deeper red colour than blood oranges from other countries.
