I haven't seen any Royal Red mango on sale, how did you managed to get some, if you wouldn't mind me asking.

The reason is, i was also thinking of getting a tree but would like to know if it tasted half decent first. As I wasn't too smart earlier on and got some dud varieties. LOL

I also take it it's polyembryonic?

They have a wonderful full red colour and as i said before to me had a faint strawberry taste, stringless and firm

thanks for the info, I am tempted to give it a go. I just hope it tasted better than honey gold, despite the hype, I just had one that is sour and bitter.

I actually enjoy the Honey Gold - especially being melt in your mouth and no fibre without being over-ripe. Guess the tang is a personal preference. Mike, perhaps it's the lack of 'spice' we're used to in KP?

Spotted today Royal Red mango for sale 2 for $4.00 at the fruit shop outside woolworths Buranda. BRAIN attention to you, now you to can taste. Chap at the shop told me they have bought the entire crop of royal reds so good luck everyone who wants to try these luscious mangoes.
