Standard Grade Perfume Lemon
Pure Origin | Maximum Cost-Efficiency | The High-Volume Utility Grade
When the end goal is flavor extraction, pickling, or industrial processing, external perfection is an unnecessary expense. Our Standard Grade (Secondary Grade) Guangdong Perfume Lemon offers the most competitive entry point into the authentic Jiangmen aromatic profile. It is the "workhorse" of the industry—delivering the essential citrus-floral notes required for mass production at a fraction of the premium price.
## The "Utility First" Value Proposition
The Standard Grade is defined by a rational trade-off: we relax appearance and uniformity standards to provide a high-performing raw material for back-of-house and industrial applications.
-
100% Authentic Aromatic Base: While the fragrance is more subtle than Grade A, it remains distinctly "Perfume Lemon"—clean, floral, and free of off-notes.
-
The Cost Buffer: Designed specifically to protect your margins against market volatility.
-
Processing Grade: Ideal for scenarios where the fruit is juiced, sliced for dehydration, or pickled, and the original shape is no longer visible to the consumer.
### Technical Specifications & Standards
Our Standard Grade is strictly vetted for food safety and flavor integrity, even while allowing for physical irregularities.
| Feature | Standard Grade (Utility Selection) | Business Application |
| Aroma | Essential Perfume Profile | Ideal for flavor bases and infusions. |
| Fruit Weight | Mixed sizing for bulk weight-based purchasing. | |
| Seed Count | Multi-seeded | Suitable for juicing or filtered processing. |
| Soluble Solids | Reliable acidity and flavor foundation. | |
| Appearance | Functional/Irregular | Up to $20\%$ surface scarring; irregular shapes. |
### Visual & Quality Transparency
In B2B industrial sourcing, clear expectations prevent logistics friction. The Standard Grade includes:
-
Irregular Geometry: May include rounder shapes, curved fruits, or uneven ends.
-
Surface Character: Permitted sunspots, wind-scars, or corked blemishes up to $20\%$ of the surface area.
-
Color Variance: A natural mix of deep green and yellow-green hues.
-
The "Safety Line": We maintain a zero-tolerance policy for rot, mold, soft-rot, or unhealed cracks. Every lemon is structurally sound for processing.
### High-Volume Application Scenarios
Where does the Standard Grade perform best?
-
Food & Beverage Industrial Use: Primary raw material for lemon jams, concentrated juices, lemon-infused syrups, and bakery fillings.
-
Mass Catering & Seasoning: The perfect base for large-batch marinades, lemon vinegar, and "Salted Lemon" pickling where the fruit is aged for months.
-
Budget-Tier Beverage Lines: Ideal for high-turnover, low-price point lemon drinks where flavor intensity is balanced through recipe optimization.
-
Industrial Dehydration: Excellent for producing dried lemon slices for tea blends and garnishes.
### Procurement & Processing Advice
To maximize the value of your Standard Grade inventory:
-
Processing Readiness: Note that this grade is multi-seeded. For beverage applications, ensure your workflow includes a seed-removal or filtration step to avoid bitterness.
-
Inventory Velocity: We recommend a high-rotation (FIFO) strategy. While structurally sound, the thinner skin of secondary fruits benefits from being processed sooner rather than later.
-
Strategic Sorting: Upon arrival, many clients perform a "quick sort"—using the most uniform fruits for slicing and the irregular fruits for immediate juicing or pickling.
