Not certain, but I believe it’s only available in Europe/outside of the US.

I grow Amoa8 in greenhouse, but I do not think that it has cold hardiness different as other common citruses. Its parents are citrus deliciosa Avana and orange Moro.

Its a good looking fruit Rad. Wish I could have it. I would graft it to poncirus and put it in a protected area. I do not have but a couple of days each winter that I would have to cold protect it. Im in zone 9 in Louisiana.

Hello Radoslav,
do you know whether Amoa 8 is different from "Rubino" from Agrumi Lenzi (https://agrumilenzi.it/negozio/citrus/clementino-rubino-citrus-clementina/)? "Rubino" seems to be a rather idiosyncrastic naming. But Italians seem to call everything "Clementine" that is a cross of a mandarin and an orange. So its the same that you have? If not, could you perhaps send me Budwood of Amoa 8? I am living in Germany.
Regards,
Till

Tintori sells both Amoa8 and Rubino Clementine. They describe the rubino as "A mutation of the common clementine, discovered in Calabria" so I don't think it can be considered the same as the Amoa8. To make things even more complicated, I believe there also exists a "rubino rosso" which could be the same as the Amoa8. See also this archived thread on the old citrus forum... link

Amoa8(Tintori) = Rubino rosso(Agrumi Lenzi) = Trabut(Adavo)

Thank you for your answers. Thank you Samodelkin and MarcV for the clarifications. Then I have Amoa8 already. Cool.

I've bought from OGW, trees tend to be smallish, grafts are usually low (which I like I'm inside/outside hobbyist guy), but otherwise disease free and legit company

I have never had much interest in common citrus cultivars that are actually nothing more than Moro crosses.

My plan is to try all the blood oranges and get rid of all but my favorite. I don't have room in my greenhouse for 4+ blood orange trees when there are so many other things to grow. I am hoping to get a good crop from all three of mine this coming year. How does amoa8 compare to moro, sanguinelli, tarocco? Maybe I can just find a source of fruit instead of wasting time growing a whole tree like I usually end up doing

The problem of space is solved by a 5-in-1 garden tree. In terms of taste and sugar: Amoa8, Moro, Tarocco, Sanguinelli. There are many more red citrus varieties. I have more than 30 of them
