How Alphonso Mangoes Are Naturally Ripened (And Why It Matters)

Alphonso mangoes are known as the King of Mangoes — but not all Alphonsos deserve the crown.

🥭 The Problem With Forced Ripening

Many mangoes in the market are:
• Harvested too early
• Ripened using chemicals
• Soft on the outside, bland inside

This affects both taste and safety.

🌿 Our Semi-Ripening Approach

At Farmer’s Table:
• Mangoes are harvested within a week
• Allowed to semi-ripen naturally
• Delivered so they finish ripening at your home

This reduces wastage and preserves flavour.
