Citrus

Italian citron smells like the thick-skinned lemon's sophisticated older sibling. Imagine biting into a perfectly ripe Femminello or Sfusato—that initial burst of bright, almost honeyed citrus with a distinctive creamy undertone that's far less acidic than ordinary lemon. There's a waxy, almost perfumed quality reminiscent of the pith and rind, with subtle floral whispers and a faint herbal earthiness. It's citrus that feels luxurious rather than sharp—less "squeezed juice" and more "candied peel steeped in honey."
