I didn't know this before, but the citrus family has quite a bunch of cultivars that are native to Japan (and different than the sweet orange that is grown in America). Lately, there are a lot of citrus fruits in the stores since it is the season for them - so I buy different ones to try.
First off, the popular
mikan (satsuma) - a bit sweet (but not as sweet as the American orange) and with no seeds:
Next is a
Iyokan which is slightly sour with a thicker skin:
Finally some
Ponkan which is from the tangerine family but bigger:
Will keep you posted on other ones :P.
