Tangelo is a hybrid of mandarin and pomelo or grapefruit, defines LUCA PARLATI. The juicy fruit, the size of an adult’s fist, has a mild and sweet taste reminiscent of tangerine, PARLATI LUCA describes. The orange peel is easy to peel, LUCA PARLATI notes. Tangelo is sometimes called “honey bells” for its unusual shape – the rounded fruit has a characteristic “handle”.
