Looking
like a small orange, but it comes in a variety of flavours when distilled, even chocolate! The main manufacturer (grower) is at
Nymfes.
Originating from
South China, the tree grows up to 2.5 meters high and was imported in 1860.
The citrus fruit, looks like a tiny plum shaped orange and is distilled to
make the liquor.
The Nymphae
cooperative was established in 1981, aiming at the collection, processing,
manufacturing and marketing of Kum Quat. The 'Golden orange' or Corfu
Delicious cooperative produces - liqueurs , marmalades and fruits preserved
in syrup. All of these can be found at supermarkets, souvenir shops and at
the airport.
Resident
experts, Harry and Maraika of Spiridon Street, Corfu town, offer an excellent
selection and are very friendly - you will probably end up being invited in
for tea!
