A long time ago, in the sunniest corner of California, a little lemon named Citron popped off a branch with a plop and landed right in the middle of a bustling packing house in the town of Corona. But Citron wasn’t just any lemon. He had a twinkle in his eye, a peel as bright as the morning sun, and a heart full of adventure. When he saw all the beautiful fruit labels being printed, each one full of color, magic, and stories. He knew he had found his calling.
While other lemons were packed away and shipped off, Citron stayed behind to guard the art, the history, and the joy of those vintage labels. Over the years, he became the brave and cheerful leader of Corona Labels, a magical place where every label tells a story and every visitor is welcome. And to this day, if you look closely, you just might spot Citron giving a wink from behind a label, still watching over the past with a smile.
