Everytime I read about these mangoes as king I get frustrated, as the world hasn't tasted Pakistani mangoes, if possible find Sindri or Chaunsa mango from Pakistan from your local market, those are completely next level.
- Sai_ 3y agoI think Sindri and Chaunsa are also available in India (Indian here) but I personally think Alphonsos are much richer in taste and texture. Ymmv. Edit - maybe I’m biased because Alphonsos are pricier so the palate thinks it’s getting something better much like pricey wine vs cheap wine which are basically the same but are perceived differently.
- kashif 3y agoThe best mango is Langda - end of discussion.
- eklavya 3y agoThat mango capsule has paper thin peel and so much pulp, soooo goood.
- nelblu 3y agoI agree! I never thought Alphonsos were the best, Langda all the way!
- jitendrac 3y agoI like the Kesar best. I am from South-Gujarat where Kesar, Alphonso(Hafus/afus) and Langda are easily available in local market. I will always choose kesar regardless the price.
- jimsimmons 3y agoBadami is highest quality followed by Raspuri imo. Former for milkshakes and later for raw eating. Everything else is noise ;)
- jfk13 3y agoYes! To me, Sindhri is in a class of its own. No mango I had in India could ever match the Queen of Mangoes from Mirpurkhas at the height of the season.
- fooker 3y ago>Sindri or Chaunsa These are available through most of the Indian subcontinent, albeit sometimes with different names. I agree that these are much better than Alphonso. Also try Himsagar and Langra!
- billfruit 3y agoHow does Tommy Atkins compare with the mangoes from Asia?
- carlmr 3y agoBigger, harder, more sour, less sweet, less flavorful.
