Description
 

Exotic Fruit Market offers the Buddha's Hand Citrus one of the oldest citrus fruits known as the Fingered Citron. Sometimes described as a "lemon with fingers," this strange citrus is treasured for its sweet floral fragrance and mild zest. Inside the fruit there is little to no flesh or juice––it's all rind and pith. For this reason, Buddha's Hand isn't really for "eating," although the rind can be candied or used in baking and other recipes. Buddha's Hand Citron is also a nice ingredient for infusing into liqueurs and other spirits. Our fruits are proudly grown in California.

In China and Japan, the hybrid, also known as the Fingered Citron, is served around the new year because it is believed to symbolize happiness, wealth and longevity.
