Clementine oranges are originally from west Algeria ?

They are named after a French priest called Father Clément, who found them growing in the village of Misserghin, near Oran, in the early 20th century.

And I was wondering why it tastes so good, have you ever tasted the pure Algerian Clementine? Its nice and sweet.

Sister Houda,
You know that what's amazing about the Algerian oranges and especially mandarines is the smell, you could smell it all arround if you remove the skin, you press it with your fingers.. emmm
Boufarik (a town in the west south of Algiers) is well known of its Zlabia and Oranges..
I Wonder whether 2005 is a good "orange juicy year"in Algeria, all depends on the rain!

BTW I wonder who sits there all day and puts a 'Maroc' sticker on each orange ?
