The Spanish lemon Verna season has kicked off as the Fino lemon season has ended according to the Lemon and Grapefruit Interprofessional Association (AILIMPO).
The Verna season is complemented by the commercial window of the Fino lemon, in this way Spain guarantees the supply of lemons produced according to European standards (quality, sustainability, traceability and food safety) for the next few weeks. It is also a 100% fresh lemon that goes from the tree to the supermarket in 48-72 hours, while the alternatives from the Southern hemisphere take a minimum of 25-30 days to arrive from the field to the shop.
Moreover, Verna is a lemon native and representative of the Vega del Segura, although it is also grown in the fields of Andalusia, especially in the province of Malaga. In fact, it is an autochthonous Spanish variety and unique in the world, which gives it a very special character.
