Introduction
The Haden mango doesn't just look great – it also offers a super sweet flavour with a custard like texture and very few fibres. The Haden Mango is known for its vibrant colour, sweet flavour, and velvety texture. It's easy to understand why it dominated the mango industry for more than 25 years in the 1900's.
History
In 1902, retired U.S. army officer, Captain John Haden, planted four dozen seedlings of Mulgoba mangoes at his home in Florida. Sadly, he passed away the following year, but his wife Florence continued to care for the trees which first fruited in 1910. One tree, in particular, produced superior quality fruit, with brilliant colour and an excellently rich flavour – this was the selected cultivar to carry the family name.
The Haden became a big commercial success, in the 1900's which led to it being cultivated in other locations with great success, such as Brazil, Honduras, Hawaii and Australia.
Regions
Originating from Florida, the Haden Mango has found its way to various tropical regions around the globe. Today, it is cultivated in countries such as India, Mexico, Brazil, and Thailand, where the warm climate and fertile soil provide the perfect conditions for its growth. These diverse regions lend unique characteristics to the fruit, resulting in delightful variations in flavour and aroma.
Flavours & Texture
A ripe Haden mango is very sweet with a custard like texture. It boasts a succulent and sweet taste with tropical undertones. Its vibrant yellow-orange flesh is tender, smooth, and juicy. The Haden Mango also has a citrusy, tropical flower aroma which further enhances its flavours.
