We are the largest exporter, distributor, supplier and trader of fresh pomelo in Ho Chi Minh City, Thanh Pho Ho Chi Minh, Vietnam. Citrus maxima (or Citrus grandis), (Common names: pomelo, pomello, pummelo, pommelo, pamplemousse, jabong (Hawaii), shaddick, or shaddock) is a natural (non-hybrid) citrus fruit, with the appearance of a big grapefruit, native to South and Southeast Asia. It is usually pale green to yellow when ripe, with sweet white (or, more rarely, pink or red) flesh and very thick albedo (rind pith). It is a large citrus fruit, 15a 25 centimetres (5.9a 9.8 in) in diameter, usually weighing 1a 2 kilograms (2.2a 4.4 lb). Leaf petioles are distinctly winged. The fruit is said to have been introduced to Japan by a Cantonese captain in the An'ei era (1772a 1781). There are two varieties: a sweet kind with white flesh and a sour kind with pinkish flesh, the latter more likely to be used as an altar decoration than actually eaten. Pomelos are often eaten in Asia during the mid-autumn festival or mooncake festival. It is one of the ingredients of "Forbidden Fruit", a liqueur dating back to the early 20th century that also contains honey and brandy. This liqueur is most famously used in the Dorchester cocktail. Some medicines may interact dangerously with pomelos and some pomelo hybrids, including grapefruit, some limes, and some oranges.
