The Corsican Clementine Juice

Corsican Clementine Juice

Premium juices by Alain Milliat

The Corsican Clementine Juice by Alain Milliat is made from carefully selected fruits to offer a high-quality French juice produced in his workshop in Valence, in the Drôme.

The clementine grows in the mild and temperate climates along the Mediterranean shores. It is believed to have been discovered in the 20th century in Algeria. It made its first appearance in France in the early 1900s, and it is on the Isle of Beauty that this citrus fruit decided to thrive.

Indeed, Corsica is the only French region that hosts clementine production. It is on this island between land and sea that the clementine tree finds what it needs: an ideal climate to prosper. Thanks to the mild days and cool nights of Corsica, the development of the clementine is favorable.

It is natural for the Alain Milliat House to select the best fruits for its juices and nectars. The Corsican Clementine obtained Protected Geographical Indication (PGI) status in 2007, which differentiates it from other varieties of clementines. The PGI is an official European quality sign that guarantees the excellence of a product.

Through Alain Milliat's clementine juice, Corsica is honored through its emblematic citrus fruit. It presents a certain roundness, delicate notes, and a slight bitterness that also make it strong.

“I chose this Corsican clementine for its extreme freshness and slight bitterness.” - Alain Milliat

This refreshing and sweet juice is to be enjoyed with brunch, during an aperitif, or at tea time.
