Guilin Lipu Satsuma Mandarin
Guilin Lipu Satsuma Mandarin is a "sweet bomb" in southern China's winter and a must-have auspicious fruit for Guilin people during the Chinese New Year. These small, round oranges have a bright orange-red skin as thin as a cicada's wing, and a gentle peel releases a fresh citrus aroma. Biting into the flesh, the crispy and tender segments burst with juice in the mouth, with a sweetness of over 15 degrees, hardly any sourness, leaving only pure sweetness and a faint citrus fragrance. Lipu's unique karst landscape gives it a unique flavor—the soil here is rich in organic matter, and the mild climate and ample sunshine allow satsumas to accumulate more sugar. During the harvest season, the mountains are covered with golden fruits hanging from the orange trees, like small lanterns among the green leaves. Foreign visitors are often attracted by this scene when passing through the orchards and can't help but pick one to taste, feeling the sweet charm of the "Hometown of Chinese Satsuma Mandarins." Lipu Satsuma Mandarins are not only delicious but also rich in vitamin C and dietary fiber. They can be eaten directly after peeling, making them convenient and healthy, and the best snack to carry while exploring Guilin's landscapes.
