Namaste and welcome to our food podcast - Petpuja Dot Com. This episode is about the GI tagged Alphonso mangoes! The Alphonso mango, also known as the "King of Mangoes," is one of the most popular and sought-after varieties of mangoes in the world. These mangoes are grown mainly in the western parts of India, including the Konkan region of Maharashtra, and are known for their unique flavor, aroma, and texture.
Recently, the Alphonso mangoes from the Konkan region of Maharashtra have been granted the Geographical Indication (GI) tag, which means that only mangoes grown in this specific region and meeting certain quality standards can be sold under the name "Alphonso." This GI tag not only helps protect the quality and authenticity of the fruit but also provides recognition to the farmers and the region for their unique contribution to the world of mangoes.
In this episode, we will dive deep into the world of Alphonso #mangoes, exploring their history, cultivation practices, nutritional value, and most importantly, what makes them so special. We will also take a look at how the #GI tag is helping to protect the quality and authenticity of these mangoes and what it means for the farmers and the region. So, sit back, relax, and let's explore the world of GI tagged #Alphonso mangoes!
