Meiwa Kumquat Reference The blooms open in steadyThe Meiwa kumquat is the sweet one, the kumquat you can pop whole into your mouth and eat skin and all. A small, tidy, evergreen citrus, Fortunella crassifolia carries round, bright orange fruit a little over an inch across, and where most kumquats offer a sweet rind wrapped around sharply sour pulp, the Meiwa softens the contrast: the peel is thick and honey sweet, the flesh only mildly tart, so the whole fruit eats like candy off the branch.
