Lemon / Lime (Nimboo) FROM INDIA

Indian lemons and limes are globally famous for their exceptionally thin skins (which translates to higher juice yield), zesty aroma, and sharp, intense acidity. We export the famous 'Kagzi Nimbu' (Sour Lime) and premium Seedless Lemons straight from the orchards of Maharashtra and AP. Our lemons are carefully waxed to retain moisture and ensure a transit life of up to 30 days.

Sourced from: Maharashtra, AP, Gujarat, Rajasthan
