Has anyone had a taste of this cultivar?

the fruits are purple, elongated, and look like a zeppelin

they look like they could tip the scales and beat the largest keitt or lancetilla mango out there.


Any feed back??? Brasilieros calling all Brasilieros!.

I just saw this posting and now I'm interested in finding more about it.  It looks like it may be a relative of the Bourbon vermelho (Red Bourbon), a flavorful mango, though it is very fibrous.  When I return to Brazil in October, I will see if I can find some to try.

Man, that Bertanha cultivar is garbage. My workplace serves it in the cafeteria here in Dubai. Matter of fact, I just had it this morning.  Yes, it is big, bland, and semi-fibrous. I was planning to take a pix and ask you guys about it, but I was like "yeah."
