Product description
The sought-after Alphonso mango hails from India and is dubbed King of the mangoes. It's famed for its smooth, rich flesh which creates a bright yellow, clean tasting puree when pressed. Sweet, juicy and fragrant, the Alphonso is a labour of love, with trees thriving in hot, tropical weather for nine years before bearing fruit ripe for picking from branches that tower up to 25ft above the plantation floor. The fruit is delicately harvested using a zela, a nylon net basket attached to a bamboo pole with a cutting tool attachment. When tugged, the zela clips the fruit carefully from its branch so it falls softly into the basket, minimising the risk of it bruising. This expert harvesting promotes the optimum quality and freshness for Frobishers Mango Juice Drink.
