Green "sefaida" mangoes from Santa Barbara


I got these mangoes from Mr Eugene Jamerlan whose farm in Brgy. Tagsing, Santa Barbara has this Sefaida variety of mango. According to Sir Eugene, this Sefaida from Mindanao is closer to the Thai Golden Arm and Vietnamese Nam Doc Mai. Its bigger than the usual mango we all are familiar with and yet it has a very tiny seed. I'll have to wait for the other mango to ripen to see how it will look and taste like. This green mango tastes like the familiar "Indian mango".
