Seville Orange

The Seville orange is of the same species as the sweet orange, but so bitter in taste that it is unfit to cat in its raw state. It is chiefly used for making marmalade (see ORANGE MAR-MALADE) and wine, and the rind is used for flavouring purposes. It seldom comes into the market before the end of February.
