Description/Taste
Finger limes are known as the caviar of citrus. Their aromatic smooth but pebbled skin appears in a triad of colors, ranging from green to brown to red and almost black. The interior of Finger limes contains caviar-shaped vesicles that burst with a lemon-lime flavor. The color of the tiny fruit vesicles intensifies during the last phase of fruit maturity.
Seasons/Availability
Finger limes are available year-round, with a peak season in mid-winter.
