Kolomb Mango

kolomban mangoes are a medium to large varietal, averaging 150 to 200 grams, and some fruits can reach up to 500 grams when grown in ideal climates and cultivation locations. The variety has an elongated, oval to oblong shape with blunt, slightly curved ends. The non-stem end occasionally features a small beak mark resembling a point. The mango’s skin is smooth, semi-thick, and taut, ripening from green to variegated shades of golden yellow, green, and yellow-orange. Some fruits may also exhibit a bright red blush if exposed to direct sun during cultivation and have pale lenticels scattered across the surface. Underneath the skin, the dark golden orange flesh is aqueous, soft, tender, and juicy with a succulent, melting consistency. The flesh also encases a central flattened, oblong seed that is inedible and should be discarded. Karthakolomban mangoes release a honeyed, fragrant scent when ripe. The flesh is high in sugar, averaging around 19 Brix, and is low in acidity, creating a very sweet, sugary, and tropical taste.
