Like Brad Pitt is to Hollywood, the Alphonso mango is to tropical fruit. Considered the “King of Mangoes,” the variety first became legal to import to the United States in 2007. Since then, every spring, it’s all Alphonso, Alphonso, Alphonso. While the buzz may be justified, there are plenty of other delicious varieties of mangoes that also deserve time in the spotlight — and have the added benefit of being available through the hot, sultry summer months.
