Named after the renowned citrus breeder, Dr. Jitsurō Fukumoto, this orange is a testament to years of dedicated cultivation and hybridisation. Dr. Fukumoto's work aimed to create a citrus fruit that combined exceptional taste with unique characteristics, resulting in the creation of the Fukumoto Orange.

Originating in Japan, the Fukumoto Orange has since found its way to various citrus-friendly regions worldwide. Today, it thrives in regions with a warm and sunny climate, such as California, Spain, and parts of Italy. The careful cultivation ensures that the fruit maintains its distinct qualities, reflecting the influence of both its Japanese heritage and the specific conditions of the regions where it is grown.
