View product pageWhat is Kesar mango and why does the name matter?
Kesar is the Gujarati and Hindi word for saffron. The mango is called Kesar for the deep orange colour of its pulp. The variety carries GI Tag No. 185 for Junagadh district, Gujarat, and the Gir Kesar sold on this site comes from the Girnar foothills there. (Source: GI Registry of India; AlphonsoMango.in sourcing records.)
The GI tag matters when you order online because you cannot inspect the fruit first: it ties the name "Kesar" to a defined growing area.
How do you order Kesar mango online?
Open the Gir Kesar Mango product page, choose a box, and check out once the season opens. The two boxes are sold by pieces and weight, not by the dozen. A first-time buyer who wants to share the fruit would usually choose the larger box; that is a suggestion, not a rule.
Fresh Kesar is out of season as of 12 October 2026, and both boxes showed as unavailable that day. Message WhatsApp +91 83690 48029 for the opening date and to confirm that your PIN code is serviceable.

Brix range and quality testing
Testing. Powle Home Foods schedules weekly carbide and pesticide-residue testing from the 2027 season. The one third-party report published so far is from Envirocare Labs (NABL accredited), dated 5 April 2025, on an Alphonso sample from an export consignment: all 28 residues tested were within Codex limits. That report applies to that sample only; it is not a guarantee for other batches. Ask on WhatsApp which test records exist for the lot you are considering.
