Why didn't anyone ever tell me that oroblancos practically supreme themselves?

Simone likes 'em. April is still dubious.

well since you asked, pommelos too.

I have a hard time even telling the two apart, to be honest.

a pommelo is usually larger and significantly heavier, with a shinier, more aromatic skin which is tight and firm to the touch; often with a largish calyx still attached, the pith and flesh will have a pink hue. oroblanco usually have dull, looser skin whose pith is fluffy and white, the flesh a light golden yellow. i think the scent of the pommelo has a sweet floral note to it, tho the oroblanco is often sweeter on the tongue.
