LAMAS LEMON

Lamas lemon is a high-quality, versatile citrus variety valued for its bright yellow color, medium to large fruit size, and high juice content. The fruits typically range from 60–90 mm in diameter, with a smooth to slightly textured rind and uniform shape, making them visually appealing for fresh markets and export. Lamas lemons are known for their tangy yet balanced flavor, high acidity, and rich vitamin C content, ensuring both culinary appeal and nutritional value. Their firm peel and consistent quality make them suitable for long-distance shipping and storage.

Lamas lemon trees are vigorous and productive, with a spreading canopy that supports abundant fruit set. This variety thrives in subtropical and Mediterranean climates, preferring well-drained soils and consistent irrigation. Flowering occurs year-round in favorable conditions, while peak harvest generally falls between late autumn and early spring. Proper post-harvest handling, including careful sorting, cooling, and packaging, preserves the fruit’s color, firmness, and shelf life for domestic and international markets.

Applications and Markets: Lamas lemons are widely used in fresh fruit markets, juice and beverage production, culinary applications, and food processing industries. Their bright appearance, firm peel, and consistent size make them highly desirable for supermarkets, hotels, restaurants, and export buyers. The variety’s high juice content and acidity also make it suitable for industrial processing into lemon juice concentrates, flavored products, and natural preservatives, ensuring a strong presence in both retail and processing sectors.
