We have carried a variety of citrus zests over the years - lemon, lime, orange, and earlier this year we added grapefruit. When one of our craft distillers was looking for Dried Tangerine Peel, we knew that it was pretty much a no brainer that we had to add this one to our growing lineup. Most consumers are incorrectly under the impression that an orange is just an orange. Citrus growers cringe at this misinterpretation, as there are numerous varieties in this class of fruit available. Tangerines are less rounded and smaller than common oranges, while the taste is also sweeter and a bit more potent. Tangerines are a type of citrus plant whose genus of flowering plants is in the family Rutaceae (orange family). The term tangerine and mandarin are often used interchangeably. This specific reddish-orange mandarin cultivar has long been marketed as tangerines, and "tangerine" is a widely accepted culinary term, but is not an actual botanical classification. Use of the term tangerine is not consistent, as some pale yellowish orange fruits are also called tangerines. Outside of this country, the term is seldom used. The best way to think of a tangerine is to understand that it is a varietal of the mandarin. Much the same as other dried citrus zests, whether we’re talking orange, lemon, lime or grapefruit, dried tangerine peel is not a pour out of the bag replacement for a freshly zested piece of citrus. But, when used properly, you can bring the volatile and aromatic oils found in the skin of the fruit back to life and elevate numerous recipes. When combined with a bit of liquid, you’ll instantly recognize the floral and tangy aroma of grapefruit, as well as the sophisticated bitter flavor this fruit is known for. The dried peel retains much the citrus flavor profile which compliments beers hopped with a citrus character. We’ve also heard that citrus peel works well in IPAs and Saisons.
