noncitrus
Lacking acidic tang
Noncitrus describes fruits or plants that are not citrus—anything outside the family of oranges, lemons, limes, grapefruits, and their relatives.
The term appears mainly in agricultural, nutritional, or commercial contexts where the distinction matters: noncitrus fruit juices, noncitrus orchards.
Apples, berries, and stone fruits are all noncitrus.
