I don't actually have the fruit. I purchase the seeds in a huge quantity and can't possibly use the extras. I use the sour orange seeds strictly for rootstocks. I can't compare the fruit unfortunately.
I do know the a sour orange cultivar generally isn't one commonly eaten but used mostly for rootstocking properties.
