Kumquat
K for Kumquat
The kumquat, a small citrus fruit (the smallest!) that's totally edible because it's eaten with the skin. It looks like a mini orange. Its name means "golden orange", and the kumquat offers a wealth of culinary possibilities.
Its tangy flesh works wonders in both savory and sweet dishes, to which it adds a deliciously sweet-and-sour touch.
The kumquat is distinguished by :
- its texture, since it is eaten whole: skin and pulp
- its oval shape and orange color
- fresh, tangy taste
Organic, Beautiful and Good
Our kumquats are organically grown with the utmost care and without chemical treatment. They ripen on the tree
Harvesting is entirely manual. It takes place from December to March.
Not only is it low in calories, it's also an excellent source of vitamins C and B9, fiber, minerals, trace elements and antioxidants.

A year in the life of Kumquat
Vegetative development
My vegetative cycle takes place over the course of a year, like many other fruits:
from pruning to flowering, via ripening quietly on the tree and finally harvesting!
Tasting
You can eat me whole. Yes, yes, with the skin! Avoid the leaf and stalk 🙃
