The Mandarin oranges are so called because they were traditionally offered as gifts to the mandarins of China. In France, the Mandarin is considered a safe remedy to treat indigestion in children, and for the elderly as it helps strengthen the digestive system and the liver.

Native to Southern China and the Far East, the Mandarin orange was brought to Europe in 1805 and to America in 1845.
