The name of that mango is Keo Sevoy (Kyo Savoy,Khaew Sawei). I believe Daleys sales this type of mango.

No pun intended but gimme a break ,this is all strickly in the line of duty. Cant help myself checking out all the Asian fruit shops at this time of year so many goodies to be found.shops to be found are opposite the post office in sunnybank centre (Coles side ) the other is across the road diagonally not woollies side but across the road from there.These mangoes are enormous, Kwan in shape but beautiful dull rose coloured skin. Bought 3 not soft yet but if correct same as I bought 4 yrs ago, sooooooo much flesh.

They are delicious, David, with a depth of flavour that leaves a perfume in your mouth; very thin skin. I bought those in pic 1 before I saw the others in pic 2 and didn't want more so I'm not sure if they're the same.

Thanks, Mike - can they be grown from seed? And how would they go in Sydney?

I should also tell Sophie who started this thread that they are selling green mangoes at Paddy's as well, labelled "Green Mangoes".

No problem, David. I must admit I made a boo boo trying to open a couple of them to see if there's a seed inside - they're there but I also damaged them. The seeds were surprisingly large for the size of the stones so although I did not push my butter knife in very far it still cut the seeds which were delicate. Don't worry I still have two larger ones I have not yet eaten so I'll save the stones for you. There is a chance I might visit Paddys again before too long and if I see them I'll buy more.

Also I just read that the seeds are edible.

I'm feeling rather envious atm and am drooling re the above posts. :)
The only mangoes I've managed to land in the fruit bowl this week are Honey Gold, Pearl and Palmer. (Passed on the Keitt at $3 a pop, and the Calypso's, as they have a funny after-taste this late in the season.)
Am looking forward to my first Kwan and King Thai this season - not sure how much longer to ripening....my Persimmons have more colour, and they're usually good for picking in March/April.

Just an update, yesterday (9-feb-14) I too had success in locating and purchasing the 'Taiwan' mangos that David has brought to our attention. There is still about 6 or 7 left.

They do smell quite nice and I'm looking forward to tasting it when it's fully riped.

Though I do question whether they are a truely a 'Taiwan' variety? Must do some research and google.

Anyway, to all involved/interested, let's hope the seed is true to type!

I think I have located the variety known as 'taiwan' mango being sold in sunnybank.

It is Chiin Hwang (or just Chin Hwang / Taiwan Golden Mango)

VF - Dont let the KT fully ripen on the tree. Pick it early when just starting to colour and allow to ripen inside. Otherwise when tree ripened they look spectacular but the bottom quater get jellied and the whole thing tastes a bit flat, like an over ripe R2E2.

David I sent two mango seeds to you at 8am last Thursday - have they arrived? I worry that they will be mouldy otherwise. I gave them a wash and packed them in kitchen paper then sent them in a zip lock bag. Maybe I should have sent them dried?

Sorry David I just picked up your email from yesterday. Too bad one of them got mouldy - hope the other one sprouts for you. I damaged two but I have one stuck in a small pot sealed inside a freezer bag on top of the fridge so may get a seedling too.

I tried to research whether they are poly or mono but couldn't find any info. My guess is that it could be a poly, as I believe it is related to thai mango strains and most of them are poly.

Update - opened one of the Taiwan mangos last night - bottom half of it was bad, with some internal break down but the top half was ok. It was very very sweet, almost like eatting sugar.

The seed already has sent out roots! But looking at the seed itself, it looks to be one piece non-segmented, (a segmented seed would be like a KP seed). So now I'm leaning towards a mono but still will give it a try.

Didn't realise there were 2 types, both of mine are the green/yellow combo. Figners crossed for when I open #2 up. Nothing ventured nothing gain but paying $7.5 for a half ediable mango is poor form.

There are some really nice green/white guavas in that sunnybank shopping centre at the moment. Shop around for the best price as a few shops have the same stock, and kj pinks custard apples outside Coles if anyone wants to try them.
