Green tangerine, often referred to as an unripe version of the common tangerine, is a vibrant, less sweet variant of its fully ripened orange counterpart. It features a characteristically tangy and slightly bitter taste with a hint of sweetness that becomes more prominent as it ripens. In terms of scent, green tangerine emits a fresh, citrus aroma that is somewhat sharper and zestier than the mature tangerine. This brighter, more piquant fragrance makes it a popular choice in perfumery and aromatherapy, as it imparts a lively and refreshing note. The essential oils extracted from green tangerines are highly valued for their invigorating and uplifting effects.
