ugli fruit
The ugli fruit is a variety of hybrid fruit originating from Jamaica and was discovered growing wild. It's a cross between a grapefruit, Seville orange, and a tangerine, hence its slightly distorted shape and unique flavor. Its name is believed to come from its unsightly exterior of rough, wrinkled, greenish-yellow skin, often with patches of green and brown. However, beneath the coarse and wrinkled exterior lies a bright, juicy fruit that offers a mix of citrus flavors. It is an excellent source of dietary fiber and vitamin C.

Ugli fruit
UGLI is the trademark of Cabel Hall Citrus Limited and under which it sells its Jamaican tangelo, a citrus fruit created by hybridizing a grapefruit, an orange and a tangerine. Its species is Citrus reticulata × Citrus paradisi. It was discovered growing wild in Jamaica where it is mainly grown today. It has an unsightly appearance with rough, wrinkled, greenish-yellow rind, wrapped loosely around the orange pulpy citrus inside. The light green surface blemishes turn orange when the fruit is at its peak ripeness. A tangelo fruit is usually slightly larger than a grapefruit and has fewer seeds. The flesh is very juicy and tends towards the sweet side of the tangerine rather than the bitter side of its grapefruit lineage, with a fragrant rind. The taste is often described as more sour than an orange and less bitter than a tangerine, however, and is more commonly guessed to be a lemon-tangerine hybrid. The fruit is seasonal from December to April. It is distributed in the United States and Europe between November and April, and is on occasion available from July to September.
