I love this fruit. And is not only on Japan that it grows. My grandmother has a green tangerine tree on her backyard, here in Portugal. Now is the time that they are more tasty. A single tree is enough for a big familiy (8-10 persons) for about 1-2 months, depending on how much fruits you eat Simply delicious.

I was in Japan many years ago and loved mikan. I don’t remember having seen them sold green then. Pity!!

Fruit and veggies are becoming more and more interesting. First it was green peas in purple pods, and now this tangerine with green skin!

It’s gorgeous! And “green tangerine” just sounds like it should be a song.

Hello Marc, spending Oshogatsu in Japan sounds very nice! Yes, staying at Ryokan is very nice and relaxing. Actually it is my ideal way of spending Shogats. If you want to stay at a good ryokan, I think you’d better make reservation soon. I used to work at a good ryokan in Gion, and I know that shogatsu customers always make reservation for the next year, when they leave. If you stay somewhere else and want to enjoy Osechi, you can buy them from department stores on new year’s eve ,or you can order online beforehand and get is delivered to your accommodation. Many stores will be closed on New Year’s day, but will open on the next day. People visit shrine and pray for the year on New Years day, at midnight. If you do so, your year will be wonderful, too!

I used to have lots of green tangerines in Malaysia when I was little but in recent years they’re not as readily found. Pity really, my family and I really loved them, ate them everyday almost.

I have never seen green tangerines in the US (at least not in San Diego).
However, in Israel they are quite abundant now. Every fruit stand sells the green tangerines (and while they are not very sweet, they are also not sour, and are very tasty). Green oranges can also be found.
