Laraha

Laraha (Citrus × aurantium subsp. currassuviencis), or Curaçao orange (Citrus aurantium var. currassuviencis), is a citrus tree that grows on the island of Curaçao, and also the fruit of this tree. The name is cognate with Portugueselaranja for the orange. A descendant of the bitter orange, the fruit of the laraha is too bitter and too fibrous to be considered edible.
