King of Mangoes

Alphonso (Hapus)

Ratnagiri, Devgad (Maharashtra)

Alphonso, lovingly called Hapus, is India's most prized mango variety. Grown primarily in the Konkan coast of Maharashtra — specifically in Ratnagiri and Devgad — this GI-tagged mango is celebrated for its incomparable sweetness, creamy fiberless pulp, and intoxicating aroma. The Alphonso season runs from March to June, with peak flavor arriving in April and May. Its saffron-gold flesh makes it perfect for eating fresh, making aamras, mango mousse, and more.
