Mandarin Oil Yellow
Citrus reticulata
Mandarin oil is one of the most important essential citrus oils for the food and fragrance industry. Depending on the origin, ripeness or type of fruit, the oil obtained from the peel can be yellow, green or red. Yellow mandarin oil is used to flavour soft drinks, liqueurs, bakery products and desserts. Mandarin oil is also frequently used in aromatherapy.
The annual production of mandarin oil worldwide is between 1.75 to 1.85 million kilograms. The yield is approximately 3 to 5 kilograms of oil per 1000 kilograms of fruit.
Mandarin belongs to the orange family and has its origins in China. Today, Italy is one of the largest producers of mandarin oil.
