Black Kasturi Mango Grafted

Description

the Black Kasturi Mango is a rare and exotic tropical fruit variety, cherished for its uniquely dark, almost blackish-purple skin and intensely sweet, aromatic flavor. A member of the Mangifera casturi species native to Southeast Asia, this premium mango is now cultivated worldwide and is gaining popularity among specialty fruit growers.

Fruit Characteristics & Taste Profile

• Appearance: The fruit is small to medium in size, typically oval-shaped. It ripens from a green hue to a striking, deep purple-to-black color, making it highly distinctive and marketable.

• Flesh: Inside, the fruit reveals a vibrant, orange-yellow, fiberless pulp that is exceptionally smooth and juicy.

• Sweetness & Aroma: With a Brix level of 20–24°, the Black Kasturi is exceptionally sweet. It is renowned for its rich, musky fragrance and a complex flavor profile often described as a cross between a classic mango and passionfruit, with a lingering, earthy-sweet finish.

Cultivation & Growing Advantages

• Climate Adaptability: The Black Kasturi mango thrives in tropical and subtropical climates, making it well-suited to the warmer regions of Nepal. It requires full sun (6–8 hours daily) and well-draining loamy or sandy soil with a pH range of 5.5 to 7.5.

• Yielding Potential: This tree is moderately fast-growing and, once established, can begin bearing fruit within 4–5 years. A mature, well-maintained tree can yield 40–60 kg of fruit annually.

• Premium Market Value: Due to its rare appearance and superior sweetness, Black Kasturi mangoes command a premium price, offering excellent potential for commercial orchards and high-end fresh fruit markets.
