cream, the <\/span><\/span><strong><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">lemon<\/span><\/span><\/strong><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"> has always been the star of fresh granitas and unforgettable liqueurs. <\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">However, there are areas where there is a long tradition of its processing and cultivation.<\/span><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">When people think of citrus fruits, a category to which the lemon also belongs, they often think of the land of citrus fruits par excellence, namely Sicily.<\/span><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">Good, juicy lemons of Italy do not grow only on this sunny, laughing island. <\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">Noteworthy Italian lemons include, in addition to those from Syracuse, the famous <\/span><\/span><strong><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">Sorrento lemons<\/span><\/span><\/strong><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"> , the sfusato of the Amalfi Coast, the fragrant lemons of the island of Ischia and those that in northern Italy grow in the Lake Garda area .<\/span><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">\"The world is beautiful because it is varied,\" and the same story applies to the lemon.<\/span><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">From Sicily to Garda, via Sorrento and Ischia, lemons are at our disposal to bring a touch of freshness to the sultriest of days.<\/span><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">They are the basis of the world's most famous liquor: the <\/span><\/span><strong><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">Limoncello<\/span><\/span><\/strong><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"> . <\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">What in the home is often boasted of by Neapolitans who offer it to their guests as the most precious of gifts. <\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">Prepared by macerating lemon peels in alcohol and diluting in water and sugar, it is an excellent end to a meal.<\/span><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">Campanian lemons in Sorrento<\/span><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">The famous <\/span><\/span><strong><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">lemon of the sorrentine peninsula<\/span><\/span><\/strong><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"> is one of the renowned typical products of the coast whose PGI mark is also recognized.<\/span><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">This is the cultivar \"limone femminello\" with peculiar organoleptic characteristics and precise cultivation method.<\/span><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">Also called the \"Oval of Sorrento\" because of its typical ovoid shape, this fruit was cultivated in the Sorrento area in ancient times. <\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">Witnessing this was the discovery of documents dating back to the 1500s.<\/span><\/span><\/p><p>However given the great appreciation this fruit had found among the people of the Romans, a cultivation even earlier than that described in the above historical documentation cannot be ruled out. In any case, the first and oldest Sorrentine estate, cultivated as a lemon grove, is \"Il Gesus.\" This, still existing today, is located in the municipality of Massa Lubrense, and was planted by the local Jesuit fathers in 1600.<\/p><p>The particular cultivation technique that makes this fruit so unique and different from others lies in the use of \"strawbeds.\" Originally these were special installations with wooden poles and thatched roofs that served to create a partial shade area over the crops.<\/p><p>In this way the trees were protected from wind and possible frosts while the fruit delayed in ripening. Today Sorrento lemons are widely used as a condiment in cooking but not only. Typical of this area is a very special <strong>lemon coffee<\/strong> while the liqueur that par excellence is part of the Italian culinary tradition is made from these very fruits: the fragrant and sweet <strong>Sorrento limoncello<\/strong>.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-0e02c1a e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"0e02c1a\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-501eeac elementor-widget elementor-widget-shortcode\" data-id=\"501eeac\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"shortcode.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t    \n    <div class=\"st-relate st-hotel-room-content\">\n        <div class=\"relate-rooms\">\n            <div class=\"st-hr\"><\/div>\n            <h2 class=\"st-heading-section\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Proposition_for_you\"><\/span>Proposition for you<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n            <div class=\"inner service-list-wrapper service-tour\">\n                <div class=\"owl-carousel st-owl-slider\" data-loop=\"false\" data-center=\"true\" data-margin=\"24\" data-responsive=\"{&quot;992&quot;:{&quot;items&quot;:4},&quot;768&quot;:{&quot;items&quot;:2},&quot;0&quot;:{&quot;items&quot;:1}}\"><div class=\"item-slide\"><div class=\"services-item grid item-elementor mb-3\" itemscope itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/Trip\">\n    <div class=\"item service-border st-border-radius\">\n    <div class=\"header-services-item\" style=\"height: 50px;

Born in the land of citrus fruits, this fruit is a lemon of the femminello cultivar, very juicy and with high quality essential oils.<\/p><p>A special feature of this lemon is that its tree has as many as three blooms each year: the \"first bloom,\" the next \"white\" and the last \"green\".<\/p><p>The fruit is edible in its entirety because its cultivation absolutely prohibits the use of waxes and fungicides before packaging.<\/p><p>The juice and peel of Syracuse lemons are prized and in demand by food companies for making ice cream, candies, liqueurs, jams, various confectionery products and other semi-processed products.<\/p><p>Essential oils, on the other hand, are widely used in the world of cosmetics and perfumery.<\/p><p>Lemons and oranges are donated during the patronal feast of Saint Lucy as a sign of devotion to the city's patroness.<\/p><h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Il_Limone_della_Costiera_Amalfitana\"><\/span>The Amalfi Coast Lemon.<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2><p>The Amalfi Coast Lemon, commonly called the <strong>Sfusato Amalfitano<\/strong> (Limon Amalphitanus) is also a PGI product. This differs from Sorrento lemons in the very characteristics of the fruit and cultivation. These lemons are always part of the femminello cultivar but belongs to the sfusato category.<\/p><p>Richer in pulp and vitamin C, it saw the spread of its cultivation along the Amalfi Coast between 1400 and 1800 when its medicinal properties in fighting scurvy were discovered. In the 11th century, it was the Republic of Amalfi that decreed that ships should always be stocked with these fruits.<\/p><p>Today, the sfusato lemon is eaten fresh or used as a condiment or in the preparation of desserts and cakes.<\/p><p>The uniqueness of these fruits comes from a territorial peculiarity: the soils on which they are born are exposed to the warm southern winds and protected, thanks to the presence of the Lattari Mountains, from the northern tramontana, the typical cold wind from northern countries.<\/p><h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"I_limoni_sullisola_dIschia_tra_gli_usi_ecco_il_piu_%E2%80%9Caffascinante%E2%80%9D\"><\/span>Lemons on the island of Ischia: among the uses here is the most \"fascinating\" one<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2><p>The island of Ischia, close to the Neapolitan coast, is a volcanic land that in Spring is colored by the fragrant lemon fruits that grow on the trees of Ischia's citrus groves.
