I rarely mention Kent mangoes as, most of the time, they are decent but unexciting. I’m looking for flavour and, due to sea-freighting as much as varietal traits, they rarely offer much more than sweetness. For the last month or two, Kent mangoes from Peru have been pretty much the only choice in supermarkets, but now is the tail-end of the season and the eating has improved tremendously. Look for the bolder, more plump fruit and avoid the very hard-green samples to give yourself the best chance of a tasty eating experience.
