Moroccan clementines caught the attention of the public in Montreal’s town centre last Wednesday. Hundreds of orange snowmen wore "îclementinesmaroc" scarves inviting the public to take part in a competition online to win a trip to Morocco.
The "Taste the Sun” campaign aims to promote Moroccan clementines and reminds consumers in Montreal that the fruits can be enjoyed from November to February and that 3 varieties exist (Nour and Fine clementines and Nadorcott mandarins). Fine clementines have a rounded shape, are very orange, have one of the finest skins and are seedless. Nour clementines have a coarse skin that is easy to remove and protruding stalks. The juice is very sweet with low acidity. Nadorcott mandarins have a flatter shape, fine skin and are very easy to peel.
