History / Other Notes
These particularly tasty oranges are grown in Sicily and are of the moro variety. We not only squeeze all the juice from them, but zest them first. A nice day of pressing 400 kg of oranges. Both the juice and the zest are covered with a bit of lambic in a stainless steel tank where it can start to ferment. After a couple of days, we cover them completely with lambic of at least one year old until the tank is full. This is left to ferment for about six months so the lambic can absorb all the aroma from the oranges. After refermentation in the bottle for another half a year, we get a sparkling orange infused lambic. [1]
