A satsuma is a fruit like a small orange: usually no seeds, and a loose skin you can pull off with your fingers. It is sweeter and easier to peel than a big orange. The name comes from Satsuma, an old name for a place in , Japan, from where the fruit was first sent west. In English shops, especially in Britain, satsuma is a very ordinary winter word; in some other places people just say mandarin or tangerine. They are close cousins. Though actually, greengrocers are not always careful, and a box labelled satsuma may be another easy-peel citrus. It is not the same as the big round orange you juice.
