Kent mango: Europe's favorite variety, picked at the peak of its flavor

It's the most popular mango in Europe. So you're bound to have seen Kent mangoes on supermarket shelves. But don't judge Kent Mango by what you've seen or tasted!

Why should you? Supermarket mangoes are picked far too early on intensive farms. As a result, they lack soul and flavor.

The real Kent Mango we love is the one that's picked at the peak of its flavor on a small, natural farm with living soil. The kind you can buy at a farmers' market on a trip to the sun. There, you'll discover an exotic fruit with no false notes and packed with vitamins. 

When you put a spoonful of this mango in your mouth, the first thing you notice is the velvety, fiber-free flesh. Then comes the amazement as its sweet juice with hints of peach and passion fruit hits your palate...

This experience is just a click away! Buy Kent mangoes from Jurassic Fruit now to liven up your home.

Keep mango at room temperature until ripe and ready to eat.

Once ripe, you can place it in the refrigerator to prolong its freshness. It will keep for 3 to 5 days in the refrigerator.

Mango is a nutritious fruit that can help keep the body healthy, especially the heart, eyes, immune and digestive systems.

Main nutrients of mango

Mango is rich in:

  • vitamin B9: provides 35.10% of the RDA, i.e. 70.20 µg per 100 g
  • vitamin C: provides 31.25% of the RDA, i.e. 25 mg per 100 g

Mango is a source of:

  • vitamin A (carotenoid family): provides 18% of the RDA, i.e. 144 µg per 100 g. Mango is the 5th fruit with the highest β-carotene content (Ciqual 2020 table)
  • vitamin E: provides 17.08% of RDA, i.e. 2.05 mg per 100 g. Mango is the fruit with the highest vitamin E content, just behind blackcurrants (Ciqual 2020 table)

Good to know, mango contains two main types of phytonutrients with antioxidant effects:

  • carotenoids, contained in large quantities in the pulp, which give it its beautiful yellow to orange color
  • polyphenols, contained mainly in the skin and core

Mango contains several polyphenols with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory actions, protecting against cell degeneration.

To make the most of its polyphenols, and in particular mangiferin (often offered as a dietary supplement because of its many benefits on its own), we recommend that you scrape off the pulp in contact with the fruit's skin and stone. You can use a knife or your teeth to scrape the pulp.

Some mango varieties have a pleasant skin to eat - these are generally the ones with the lowest polyphenol content.
