ABC Taiwan Ponkan 台湾椪柑

ABC is the most well-known premium brand of mandarin orange in the market. They are also the most popular type of orange during Chinese New Year because they are palm-sized, are larger and less wrinkled than lukan. Their vibrant orange color makes them appealing and appropriate for gifting and exchange. They also have a sweet and juicy flavour that family and friends will adore.

STORAGE

Ponkans should be kept in the refrigerator if you don't consume them all within 1-2 weeks. Which is nearly impossible because they are so delicious!

FUN FACTS & TIPS

Homophones are extensively utilised in Chinese culture, and dialects are no exception. In Cantonese, "song gam"—which translates as offering oranges, has the same sound as the term that signifies "giving gold". As a result, giving and receiving mandarin oranges came to represent prosperity.
