The famously rich and tart flavour from the oval Femminello lemons has been renowned for centuries. Wall paintings and mosaics in Pompeii and Herculanum prove that these lemons have been appreciated since the first century AD.
It is in Sorrento, on the Amalfi coast, that the oval Femminello lemons are grown. This varietal has been awarded the Italian “Protected Origin” designation.
The intense lemon but not overly tart taste comes from its peel and virtually pip free juicy flesh and is full of the goodness of Vitamin C. This exceptional combination has given it worldwide fame.
We believe that by using only organic and natural products (no additives or preservatives) and by sourcing from only reputable suppliers, we are able to get the best flavour in our ice creams. Our recipes take into the consideration the time needed for each flavour to mature and develop its full potential.
