Dasheri Information
Dasheri
Dasheri mangoes are one of India’s most iconic and historic cultivars, celebrated for centuries for their rich sweetness and fragrant aroma. The fruit is medium-sized with an elongated, narrow-elliptic shape and smooth, greenish-yellow skin that typically ripens to a golden hue. Inside, the tender, juicy flesh is predominantly Fiberless , offering a velvety mouthfeel that makes it highly prized for fresh consumption and culinary uses. Because Dasheri ripens relatively early in the mango season, it is one of the first favorites to appear in markets in northern India and neighboring countries, marking the beginning of summer fruit celebrations.
The history of the cultivar adds to its allure: the first known Dasheri tree was discovered in a village near Lucknow and cultivated by the Nawab and horticulturists of Malihabad. Over generations, growers refined the variety through careful propagation, establishing Malihabad as a major Mango Belt of India with distinctive climatic and soil conditions that enhance the fruit’s flavor profile. Beyond India, Dasheri has spread to Pakistan, Nepal, and other South Asian regions, where it is similarly revered whether eaten fresh or used in mango dishes, juices, and traditional desserts. Today it is also exported internationally, reflecting its wide appeal and deep cultural roots.
Historical Context: Dasheri is one of the oldest North Indian mango cultivars, with origins traced to an 18th-century tree near Lucknow. Its discovery and propagation by Abdul Hameed Khan were instrumental in establishing Malihabad as a major Mango Belt . This deep history contributes to Dasheri’s cultural status in India’s mango heritage.
Collector’s Insight: Enthusiasts prize Dasheri for its balanced sweetness, distinct aroma, and smooth texture, making it ideal for fresh consumption and culinary uses ranging from fruit salads to Aamras and smoothies. Its elongated shape and golden hue visually signal quality and ripeness.
