Kumquats are a unique member of the citrus family and are thought to come from China.  The two main varieties of kumquats are the sweet and tart oval shaped Nagami and the sweet round Meiwa.  There are many other varieties of kumquats and hybrid kumquats including the Mandarinquat.

Mandarinquats are a cross between a kumquat and a mandarin. They are a fun bell shape, larger than your average kumquat and they have an edible sweet peel and tart flesh. Take a bite out of this juicy kumquat or cut into slices to add to salads or desserts.
