Chaffin Family Orchards

By: Melody Wright (Dec 17, 2010)
Ordered these on a whim and was very pleased with my decision. I thought for organic citrus the price was good (not great, but it all goes to the farmer rather than middleman, a concept which I like to support). They arrived in timely manner and were in great condition. Nice balance of sweet and tart, VERY juicy and fresh. I've been prancing around the house yelling "satsumaaaaa" and doing karate kicks.

I've been disappointed with store bought mandarins and clementines in their cute little boxes, because so often are dry and stringy. Not these. Yum, yum, yum. I try to eat mostly local produce but am pleased I made an exception for these. And you can't beat the free shipping!

My only disappointment is that they don't come in a smaller option as well. I wanted to send as a gift to a single person, and this huge box I think would be too much. I wouldn't want to risk them going bad :(

In summary: excellent taste, great texture and freshness, prompt delivery, good price and great for battling scurvy.
