The peel is very rough, tough, and exceptionally thick, constituting up to 70% of the entire fruit. Its color varies greatly depending on the maturity period, rising from deep green when the fruit is unripe, to the golden yellow of the ripe fruit. The main products obtained from citron are candy and liqueurs, and the oil is a minor product used as a flavoring in sweets and beverages
