GI-tagged Alphonso · Ratnagiri, India

Alphonso mangoes, from Konkan to Europe.

Vins Impex exports GI-tagged Alphonso (Hapus) mangoes from Ratnagiri, on Maharashtra's Konkan coast, to importers and distributors across the European Union.

The king of mangoes.

Known in India as Hapus, the Alphonso is prized for its colour, texture and fragrance, and it's the mango Europe's Indian and gourmet markets ask for by name.

  • Saffron flesh. Deep golden-orange, smooth and almost free of fibre.
  • Unmistakable aroma. Rich and sweet, the scent that made Alphonso famous.
  • Only from Konkan. Its character comes from the coast's laterite soil, sea air and climate.
