Alphonso (A)

🥭 Alphonso Mango — The King of Mangoes

Exquisite Taste. Regal Origins. Unmatched Flavor.

🌍 Heritage & Identity

The Alphonso mango, fondly called Hapus in Maharashtra, is one of the most celebrated mango varieties to ever grace Indian soil. Grown primarily along the Konkan coast, especially in Ratnagiri and Devgad, this mango thrives in the region’s rich red soil, warm sun, and monsoon-kissed air — conditions that make it truly one-of-a-kind.

👑 What Makes Alphonso Royal?

✨ Appearance:
Medium-sized and oval, with smooth skin that ripens into a golden-yellow glow, sometimes with a soft reddish blush.

🥭 Flesh:
A deep saffron-orange pulp, completely fiberless, offering a creamy, buttery texture that melts effortlessly in the mouth.

🌺 Aroma & Flavor:
An intensely sweet and fragrant profile with notes of honey, apricot, melon, and a hint of citrus. Some even notice a delicate spice-like undertone. Its unmistakable tropical fragrance fills the room when ripe.

📅 Seasonal Delight

Available from March to July, with the peak harvest from April to June, Alphonso is often the first premium mango to arrive each Indian summer.
