The Valencia Oranges has a thin rind that is golden orange with a rough, leathery texture that contain fragrant essential oils. Underneath the surface of the rind, the white, spongy pith clings tightly to the flesh making the fruit somewhat difficult to peel. The yellow-orange flesh is tender, extremely juicy, contains 1-6 cream-colored seeds, and is divided into 10-12 segments by thin membranes. These oranges have a balanced, sweet-tart flavor.
