Grapefruit

Description

Referred to as a “forbidden fruit” and one of the “Seven Wonders of Barbados,” Grapefruit was first documented in 1750 by Welshman Rev. Griffith Hughes. The name “grapefruit” is attributed to the fruits growing in clusters which resemble those of grapes. Known for its energizing and invigorating aroma, Grapefruit is beneficial for its uplifting aroma. Grapefruit is also renowned for its cleansing and purifying properties and is frequently used in skin care to promote the appearance of healthy-looking skin.
