Naval Orange

Fresh Navel Oranges from Egypt, Premium Quality for Export

Navel oranges are among the most favored varieties for fresh consumption. They possess a sweet and easily peelable skin, making them ideal for segmenting and adding to salads or baked goods. They pair excellently with dried fruits, nuts, onions, olives, cheeses, fresh herbs, bananas, and berries.

The juice and zest of navel oranges can be utilized to enhance the flavor of syrups, curds, and doughs.

Navel oranges are known for being the earliest ripening variety among oranges. They produce seedless fruits that are larger in size compared to other varieties, boasting deep orange, easily peelable rinds and a delightful sweet flavor. While they are superb for fresh consumption due to their seedless nature, they are not particularly suitable for juicing.

Regarded as the world's finest oranges for fresh eating, navel oranges are exceptionally sweet and naturally juicy. Their peel and segments can be effortlessly removed, enhancing their appeal for fresh consumption.

Navel oranges and Valencia oranges share similar flavor and appearance characteristics. However, there are distinguishing features between the two varieties. Oranges, being one of the most widely cultivated fruits globally, classify both Valencias and navels as "sweet oranges" of the Citrus x sinessis genus. The primary external feature that sets navel oranges apart and gives them their name is the distinctive feature located at the blossom end.
