Honey Murcott
A tier
Honey Murcott is the sweet-market naming of Murcott-type fruit emphasising high Brix and honeyed eating quality. Expect deep colour, lush juice, and possible seeds. It signals dessert mandarin more than botanical novelty. Serve chilled segments; pair with dark chocolate or yogurt. Ideal late-winter sweet citrus when early clementines have finished. Buy heavy, fragrant fruit.
