Jeju clementines, Gam Gyul

Gam Gyul is the most common Korean Clementine that is grown all over Jeju Island. The ones that are grown in Seogwipo City are actually sweeter than regular clementines.

Clementines that are cultivated from October to November tend to be bigger in size and juicier while those cultivated in December are smaller and have a great tangy scent to them. Anyhow, Jeju clementines are known to be tasty all around.
