Jabara (Citrus × jabara) is a hybrid species of plant and fruit that is among the Japanese citrus.
Jabara is a fruit similar to the yuzu, deriving from a cross of the yuzu with a pomelo-hybridized mandarin (Citrus nobilis, but distinct from King), that arose naturally in Wakayama Prefecture, Japan.
Other uses
An extract made from the pericarp of the jabara has been used in cosmetics. Narirutin, a flavanoid compound found predominantly in the peels of jabara, has been researched for its potential effects in alleviating allergy symptoms associated with rhinoconjuctivitis.
