Contact SupplierSweet lemons are a medium to large varietal, averaging 6 to 7 centimeters in diameter, and have a round to oval shape with a slightly flattened base. The fruits also showcase a distinct nipple on one end and ripen from green to bright yellow, sometimes yellow-orange. The peel is thin, taut, and semi-smooth, covered in prominent sunken oil glands giving the surface a pebbled, textured feel. Underneath the peel, the flesh is divided by thin white membranes into 9 to 10 segments, and the pale-yellow flesh is tender, aqueous, and pulpy, either being found seedless or containing a few cream-colored seeds. Sweet lemons should feel heavy for their size and emit a sweet, honeyed scent when sliced or scratched. The flesh has low acidity, creating a mild, floral, sweet, and subtly tangy flavor.
