Kobayashi feature a bright orange color reminiscent of mandarins but with the appearance of an Amanatsu. They have a grapefruit-like tartness with less bitterness, offering a refreshing taste and addictive, juicy pulp. The Kobayashi mandarin appears to be a chimera variety, a cross between Natsudaidai and Unshu mandarins, grafted by a person named Kobayashi in Fukuoka Prefecture. It is a rare variety with almost no market circulation.
