![]() ![]() Naartjie has a sweetness just on the edge of sour, clementine is sweet all the way. But in the four years of living in Chichester I never once tasted a clementine with the naartjie texture and flavour I was hoping for. It is confusing, because when you google both naartjie and clementine, descriptions for both come up which seem pretty interchangeable. ![]() Clementine is citrus clementina (there’s a clue in the name), whereas the naartjie is citrus reticulata, a member of the satsuma, mandarin, tangerine clan. Is a naartjie a Clementine? No, although sometimes it’s hard to tell the difference with soft citrus that loosens easily from its shell, like the naartjie.
