Garut Oranges are a fruit variety grown in the mountains and hilly areas of Java, Indonesia, specifically in the Wanaraja, Samarang and Bayongbong Districts of Garut Regency.[1] These locations feature mountains or hilly areas, with highland elevations of more than 900 m (3,000 ft) above sea level. Many kinds of fruits and vegetables compete for this growing area.

When Indonesia was a Dutch colony, Garut Oranges were considered one of Indonesia's most famous exotic fruits.

Garut Oranges have a good taste, good coloring, thick skin textures, and good aroma. Crops have been significantly damaged by Citrus Vein Phloem Degeneration (CVPD).[2]
