Grown under the close watch of the company’s citrus growers, Bee Sweet’s Heirloom Navels are now in season and will be available through the end of California’s citrus domestic season.

“For decades, our growers have worked diligently to exceed our consumer’s standards in taste and quality,” stated Bee Sweet Citrus Vice President of Farming Keith Watkins. “Heirloom Navels continue set the bar for excellence due to their high brix levels and exceptional flavor.”

True to its name, Heirloom Navels are a selection of California’s oldest and most established citrus varieties. They’re generally grown on blocks of well-aged trees, averaging anywhere from 40-60 years old.

“When it comes to citrus, customers can rely on Heirloom Navels because they’re never compromised by acidity,” stated Bee Sweet Citrus Sales Representative Joe Berberian. “The work of our farm and production teams, coupled with the technology of our Brix machines, guarantees consumers an exceptional piece of fruit every time they turn to our brand.”

Available in vibrant packaging, Bee Sweet’s Heirloom Navels stand out in their black carton and matching 3- and 4-pound bags. They’re expected to be available through May and consumers are encouraged to try them while they’re in season.

In addition to Heirloom Navels, Bee Sweet Citrus also reports a strong supply of Mandarins, Navel Oranges, Lemons, Grapefruit, Cara Cara Navels, Blood Oranges and Minneola Tangelos.
