About Nam Doc Mai Mangoes
Nam Doc Mai mangoes are a medium to large varietal, averaging 6 to 7 centimeters in diameter and 12 to 15 centimeters in length, and have an elongated, slender, and curved shape with a prominent beak or point on one end. The variety is heavy for its size, ranging from 250 to 500 grams in weight, and in Thailand, Nam Doc Mai is one of the largest varieties sold in commercial markets. The mango's skin is thin, smooth, and taut, showcasing mostly golden yellow hues when ripe, sometimes blushed with pink accents. Some ripe Nam Doc Mai mangoes may also have green still on the surface. Beyond their coloring, Nam Dok Mai mangoes exhibit small white to pale yellow lenticels and occasionally develop sugar dots on the skin when mature. Underneath the surface, the yellow flesh is fibreless, fine-grained, silky, and aqueous with a tender, succulent, soft, and melting consistency. The flesh also encases a thin and slender seed. Ripe Nam Doc Mai mangoes release a robust and intoxicating aroma. The variety is known for being one of the sweetest mangoes in Thailand, with sugar levels reaching 17 to 20 Brix, and has a honeyed, sweet, tropical, and floral flavor.

Nam Doc Mai mangoes, botanically classified as Mangifera indica, are an Asian variety belonging to the Anacardiaceae family. The early to mid-season cultivar is native to Thailand and is one of the most common varieties found in the country. Nam Doc Mai mangoes grow on mid-sized trees reaching over six meters in height, and the variety is a polyembryonic-seeded cultivar, meaning that the seeds will produce multiple seedlings that will be identical to their parent. Nam Doc Mai mangoes are favored for their size, taste, and consistency, and the Thai variety spread worldwide in the late 20th century, achieving international fame and recognition. Since their introduction worldwide, Nam Doc Mai mangoes have been considered a high-quality dessert cultivar and are commercially grown for fresh eating. Growers favor Nam Doc Mai mangoes for their disease resistance, productive nature, and consistent fruiting, and several variations of the original strain have been developed in breeding, notably Nam Dok Mai No. 4 and Golden Flower Water mangoes. Despite their valued characteristics, Nam Doc Mai mangoes become soft when ripe, creating shipping challenges in commercial cultivation. The variety is also notorious for dropping from the tree when almost ripe. Growers must harvest Nam Doc Mai mangoes when they are mature but still green and place the fruits in individual foam wrapping to protect the delicate surface during transport. Nam Doc Mai mangoes are a versatile variety consumed green or fully ripe in a wide array of fresh and cooked culinary preparations. Diatomaceous Earth
