Egyptian Tommy mango by Fruit Link – the wonderful taste.

Tommy Atkins mango is one of the most commercially popular mango varieties worldwide, widely recognized for its durability and long shelf life. The fruit maintains its original shape and color throughout extended transportation durations.

The size of Tommy Atkins mangoes ranges from medium to large, and their form shows an oval to moderately oblong appearance. A sloping shoulder with a small beak appears on the fruit while the apex remains round. The smooth, thick skin of the fruit shifts from green to deep red with yellow-orange highlights as it reaches full ripeness.

The interior of the fruit has yellow-golden flesh that provides a gentle sweetness, together with a moderate amount of fiber. The firm texture of this variety makes it suitable for slicing, salads, and juice, but it lacks the softness and aroma found in other varieties.

Cultivation of Egyptian Tommy mango:

The Tommy Atkins mango is cultivated in Egypt through the Ismailia area, the Sharqia region, and the Nile Delta. The seasonal period for cultivation starts during the closing weeks of spring, yet the harvesting period reaches its highest point from July to September. Fruit quality standards are maintained by Egyptian producers who select their harvest at the appropriate stage for export purposes.
