Prized in Japan for its very flavorful rind and juice, the Sudachi Hybrid Yuzu Citrus Tree is a cross between Yuzu and another unidentified Japanese citrus that is similar to the koji or Tachibana orange. The unique, spicy juice from golf ball size Sudachi fruit is used to flavor soups, fish dishes and even ice cream and other desserts. Higher in Vitamin C than Lemons, Sudachi fruit is often picked green, when its flavor is most pronounced.
