Organic Jumbo California Keitt Mango Trio

California-grown Keitt Mangos are here for their short 4-6 week season! This super sweet variety has been grown in Coachella Valley in Riverside County for the past few decades, but only recently has organic production taken off to the point where they've been grown commercially and sold outside of farmers' markets in Southern California.

The skin of the Keitt remains green when ripe, but should begin to give slightly to gentle pressure. It has a honey-like sweetness, with none of those annoying strings attached to the pit of other varieties. Unlike almost all imported mangoes (besides a few growing in one small region of Mexico), CA-grown mangoes are untreated, meaning that they haven't been put into a hot water bath (generally 115°F for 75-110 minutes, which some studies suggest can have negative effects on fruit flavor and aroma).
