Noa

Category:

Noa is a visually attractive mango with a red blush tinged with hues of orange over a green background. The fruit tends to be medium to large in size and has a fairly pronounced and slightly irregular nose at the stem-end, but generally is a slightly rounder version of Kent in shape. Noa is a fleshy mango with a thin stone and fairly thin skin. The flesh is a deep yellow-orange, is quite firm and contains slight fibres, but not sufficient to detract from the eating experience. When maturity is at its peak, the fruit has high levels of sweetness and an attractive flavour. On ripening, the skin attains an orange colouration.

Noa is a mid to late season variety.
