It is considered to be the most expensive mango in the world, which can cost from Rs 1.5 lakh to Rs 2.75 lakh for one kg. Its specialty is not only its taste, but also its bright color, nutrition and fine method of farming.
Miazaki Mango originated in a province called Miazaki, Japan. The special climate and methods of care here make this mango special. The skin of this mango is bright red, which looks exactly like James. To grow it, every fruit is hung in a separate mesh so that it develops after getting balanced nutrition from sun, air and rain. This mesh also protects him from falling from the tree and in this process the size and quality of mangoes are much better. The weight of this mango is usually more than 350 grams and the amount of natural sugar is found in more than 15%.
