When does Kate mango ripen in Taiwan? Kate, what is the best ripeness of the mango?

Kate is a relatively late-maturing variety with large fruit shape and thick pulp. It is mainly planted in Tainan County, covering an area of more than 900 hectares. Kate usually doesn't go on sale until the end of July and can still eat it by the end of September. In addition to Aiwen, the mango farmers in Yujing, Nanhua and Nanxi will also be a little bit more or less Kate because of the adjustment of delivery period.

Kate, like Jinhuang, needs to be destroyed before eating after harvest. When Kate is not bagged or only covered with a layer of white bag, it tastes better with high maturity, but the color at the end of the mango will turn green, affecting the willingness to buy, because consumers in Taiwan have the habit of buying fruit red and green, so fruit farmers have to spend money on black bags to grow Kate mangoes, which are redder but less mature, sometimes with two layers in order to make the color more red. Although the color of this Kate mango is beautiful, it is very sour and fragrant. For this reason, many people mistakenly think that Kate's quality is not good. In fact, it is because the Kate bought on the market is not really in the sun and has a sour taste.

Kate mango is not yet ripe, some pink, pink is more obvious, looks like a girl more delicate; about five days later, the flesh began to feel softer, but then there will be some acid; after ripening on the eighth day, the color came out, yellow became darker, green and pink became less, and the skin seemed to get worse, with smaller black spots. At this time, the flesh feels soft. And it smells like mango. Cut it off and eat it. It's really sweet! Only the part near the seed is still slightly sour and tasty.
