This variety of Citron essential oil is derived from the Citron Di Salo, a citrus cultivated in the province of Cosenza as well as in Liguria, where it is used to produce Salò liqueur and of course in the Alentejo.
The composition of this citron is particularly rich, containing even more polyphenols than bergamots and exhibiting exceptional antioxidant properties. Its scent is reminiscent of clementines, with a subtle and pleasant aftertaste. As a result, it yields a delicate essential oil that is highly prized.
