Vin Long Mango

Vin Long is a Vietnamese mango variety named after Vĩnh Long province in the Mekong Delta, a region known for rich agricultural production. This variety is appreciated for its large, sweet, and mildly tart fruit, often eaten green or ripe in Southeast Asian cuisine. The fruit has a firm, juicy texture and is commonly used fresh or in green mango salads. Its productivity and large size make it a popular choice for growers seeking multi-purpose fruit.
