🥭Queensland Mangoes Have Started 🥭

Provincial Produce is proud to offer premium Australian mangoes - delivering deep golden flesh and a heavy, fragrant ripeness that sets them apart from the early imported fruit.

Bowen and the Burdekin came on this week, which is the moment the mango run properly begins. The Northern Territory carried the early fruit out of Darwin and Katherine, and from here volume builds steadily through November and December.

🔹 Flavour: Rich, sweet and aromatic, with the clean tropical perfume that only tree-ripened Australian fruit carries.

🔹 Varieties: Kensington Pride and R2E2 on the floor now, Calypso following, and Honey Gold from early to mid November.

🔹 Versatility: Cheeked and scored for service, blitzed to a puree or sorbet, or cut against chilli and lime beside seafood, mango earns its place right across the menu.

Early-season fruit is the dearest it will be all summer, so every week from here brings better buying.
