The Golden Miracle of Rich Taste
Chin-Huang Mango was a new variety successfully bred by Mr. ChinHuang Huang of Liouguei Township in 1974 after going through long-term efforts to improve and cultivate foreign White and Keitt mango strains. Since 1966, Mr. Huang has contributed tremendous efforts to breeding new varieties of mango. Eight years later, he finally succeeded and bred the Chin-Huang Mango. It not only has the feature of large fruit from its male parent Keitt mango but also inherited the needed after-ripening feature. The largest fruit can weigh up to 1.2 kilograms. The meticulous flesh of the fruit comes from its heredity of its female parent, White mango. There is no fiber in the flesh. Since it is thick in flesh, it can be cut into small cubes, making it a popular food ingredient in making desserts.
