Common and East Indian, Blackie is my favorite,I didn't know so much spices of mango in my beautiful country, I love you Jamaica hope by God grace I see you soon 😘

Wonderful source of useful information about our favourite mangoes cultivated on our Islands of the Carribbean.

Does anyone remember the " Christmas" mango? A large mango good for slicing to serve at dinner. It was never a common mango but came out late in the season and was grown in the Cargill Avenue area of St. Andrew on some beautiful trees back in the late 1950s to 1960s. My favorites are St Julian, East Indian, Bombay and the Blackie mangos.

Informative , Awesome Video !! Respect💖

East Indian, Julie, milly are my faves. There's this mango I used to see when growing up. I think it was called Fabsy or Fab Mango. I've only seen that tree one place in Clarendon. It is bright yellow to light orange in colour with small red spots around the stem area.

Thank you so much brother for bringing so much love all the time. Though especially for the love of Mangoes, greatly appreciated. Living in Canada all these years, it is the memories of such richness, sweetness amongst other elenents that beckons me home to the Island of my birth. There is a mango that I remembered having the pleasure of eating as a child that I haven't heard the name of. I associated it with the name Lady Mango, though I am not certain what that looks like either. I only knew it's shaped like East Indies Mango with a red side and a yellow side, it"s distinctively small and fits mostly between the thumb of one hand and the following 2 fingers . If I saw a picture of it I would remembered it. However, we had a home filled with fruit trees and such other staples. We lived on favored land because , my grandmother's property was the most Prosperous, Abundant and Tasttiest. Everything that grew there , was bigger than most in the district. East Indies mangoes ,loaded our trees, we could stand and pick as much as we like, from the bottom to the top. People was envious. We couldn't engage in throwing the seeds away, they were so sweet, filling and were the size of green papaya, our yellow skin Guavas were almost the size of Oranges, with the sweetest bright pink centers and our big yellow Grapefruits, the size of Jelly Coconuts. I went home as a grown up and it is as I remembered. When I was a child my cousins and I I could not eat too many because of the size. As you can see , you bring forward memories. Great memories. If only we had a loving and caring Prime Minister and suppoting members of parliament who was actually god fearing, for lack of a better word doing Right by Our Island Jamaica. Most if not All Jamaicans abroad would return and help to strengthen our economy and create jobs that would allow us to uplift and elevate our citizens to compete on a global scale. We would be returning home in droves. As a Spiritual Community we have to move with Unity and Call Into Existence the Changes we Seek. Together wr have to do this, Letgo and Let The Most High , and continue to have good thoughts and do good to others, no matter what. Though I am not saying don't protect yourself. The Most High did not make foolish beings to inherit his kingdom. Yet we must try to be "the bigger person " and apologize to those who don't have wisdom and vision. Our expats will not venture to their homeland when those in charge cannot get it together. Sadly , peoples lives are not the most important , compared to money, greed and power. Surely if by some mistake the prime minister and his gang manage to get in again, Jamaica will be toast and we will be looking side-eyed at he Jamaicans om the Island. Break the spell that has been cast on our beautiful Island/people. "Chase those Crazy demons outta there. We are doing the work here, for our home and planet. This Is A Spiritual attack from the demonic kingdom. Live if you want to live. The same heavenly father, The Most High that we know yesterday, today and tomorrow that Guided, Shielded, Protected And Lifted Up Our Ancestors, allowing us to be here now. Now we are the Ancestors. Fight Spiritually or roll over and let our generations, The Children Of The Most High to be Erased from Our Inheritance. Every man should know by now the Spiritual significance of these perilious times we are living in. Our Divine beings are here. In your movements call unto them, do not beg. Reason and ask for what you need and let it be not always about you, you, but also the Island/ the World at large. Give thanks, don't dwell on it, let go and let The Most Holy and Powerful Spirit work on your behalf. Be Grateful For Every Little Things In Life. Thank you for allowing I to get these feelings off my mind. One Love!

My favorite mango, as to most eaten in my life is, Black mango AKA, blackie, green gage, (in my side of the island, gatie.) Graham was a good mango type, but I never had enough to make it my favorite. Other common mangoes I had growing up in Jamaica were, Stringy aka Hardy in my area. Kidney, (nice taste, but full of worms, always!) Number 11. Uncommon mangoes that I have easy access to, scissors, sauly or salty, John belly full, bees box. one single tree that my grandma owned on her property, we simply called Reddie or reddy. Someone gave me a taste of Millie once and I never forget that taste, over 33 years! I don't know if I had ever eaten Julie or East Indian mangoes before, I have a hard time identifying them. Here in New York, I always buy a certain mango at the Caribbean Market, the label called it Haitian Mango, a cousin told me that it was East Indian, but I'm not sure, research haven't gave me any real proof, but it's my new favorite mango, even though I have to buy it if I want to eat it, which I don't do very often. Tommy Atkins is America's most common mangoes and can be found in almost every supermarket fruit section, anytime of the year. It's one of the worst mango in my opinion. Not sure if America would import Tommy Atkins from Jamaica, because they grow so many in Florida already.

@@MichaelSmith-fu3bm if I have to pay for them, I don't want to. I consider myself a fruit forager and I hated having to spend money to get them, especially mango. I guess it's because when growing up, mangoes were everywhere and I could have more than I could eat easily and free.

What about the Yam Mango? Good sized, redish, partly yellow and some green when ripe. Very flavourful, juicy and sweet. The thickish skin is edible because the sweet flesh goes deep into the it. Some fruits produce a finger-like growth sticking out from it. Very very little or no string at all and is easily consumed using a spoon.

You've done your research well Elite, impressive and detailed work ,cheers to you my brother!!!

I do not have a favorite per-say. I do like the Black Mango very much. CNF

I have been browsing through the comments and I didn't see this one you asked about the big full me gut, it's known as yam mango popular grown in upper St. ANDREW OR ST THOMAS, misses my Jamaican mangoes the beats all mangoes from other countries. You have all the names more or less correct thanks for exposing our mangoes only that the Tommy Aitkin was introduced to Jamaica for export because the Americans love it, too bad through stealing the project was abandoned.

We also have rusty mangos where parts of the skin has some semblance of the tree bark (brown and rough to the touch) which is slightly smaller than stringy/common mango and has a tart taste and can be sometime ashy or soda like in flavor.

It reminds me when mango is in season pot turned down the best fruit ever the aroma is out of the park

The tree is 'ginormous'

Mi mouth a water right now.

Thanks for sharing. I however, did not hear four mangoes mentioned that I know from the western end of the Island. They are Saddle back, based on its appearance, reddie that is similar to the bluey but has a reddish hue instead of blue and hardy which is similar to a stringy but is very hard even when ripe. There is also bastard graham due to its appearance. It is small and very sweet.

GREAT VIDEO!!!! Going to Jamaica as a kid to spend summer with my grandparents I never ate mangoes. I just couldn't stand the smell. I didn't eat star apples either. Now as an adult, I LOVE mangoes! I always look forward to my trips to Jamaica during mango season. I can't make a smoothie without mangoes. I can only name and identify 2 mangoes though...Julies and Blackies.

From area code 758, when I was a child, we had a very very very sweet mango. I don't remember the name. All I know it reminded me of a deworming medecine called "ANTEPA".

Growing up we use a have a mango call quarrel it is very sweet it grow long looking like longie also some of them are small like guinep thats you call the bubbie it is very sweet also a mango name Williband also sweet but the seed part sour also a mango name Rounie it is small an fleshy

Goat seed or Cruffie/Scruffy mango (not common). One or two can fit in the mouth at once (tiny as table tennis🏓 or gulf ball). Just as the name suggest, they are round, thickish green skin, cruffie/scruffy (as if scratched and healed over roughly) but sweet.
