New Product Review:

Natalie's Orchid Island Juices

Reviewed by Mr Breakfast on 7/28/2008

I loved these juices. They arrived from Fort Pierce, Florida to my office in Hollywood, CA in a refrigerated styrofoam pack. Defying time and distance, the first gulp I took of their orange juice tasted as if I were driving through Florida and stopped at a fresh-squeezed juice stand beside an orchard.

Of the juices that I tried, I liked their all natural orange juice the best. The fresh-squeezed taste was undeniable and it was pleasantly sweet. I couldn't believe so much sweetness could exist without a little sugar, but the label listed the ingredients short and sweet: 100% orange juice.

My second favorite was the their all natural grapefruit juice which had me appreciating the difference between this fresh-squeezed variety and some of the watered-down varieties you get at the grocery store. People who don't care for grapefruit juice because of it's tartness should give this brand a try. The tartness in this juice is more of a subtle note than an overriding flavor.

Taking third place in my tour of Natalie's Orchid Island juices was all natural tangerine juice. If you've never really appreciated the difference between tangerines and oranges, you should give this one a try.

Coming in last place was their organic orange juice which, despite having the title that would indicate the most freshness, tasted the most like ordinary grocery store orange juice from concentrate.

Truly fresh-tasting juices are a great thing to wake up to. Orchid Island obviously understands what makes some juices better than others. These were among the best tasting juices I've ever tried.





Here's a few key points from the press materials that arrived with the juices:

• Orchid Island Juice Company personally selects and tests only the finest Florida fruit which is picked and squeezed to capture the raw flavor of the juice at its peak. Only Florida fruit is used ALL YEAR in our 100% Fresh Squeezed Juice.
  
  
• Our commitment to you is that we produce juice only when you place an order. This guarantees product freshness.
  
  
• Orchid Island Juice Company "delicately" pasteurizes our juices at the lowest possible temperature for the shortest time to retain the fresh taste enzymatic activity and the nutritional value of fresh juice.
