You can order Alphonso mango in Lucknow online from AlphonsoMango.in. We send Ratnagiri and Devgad Alphonso by Blue Dart, from Rs 1,849 per dozen. Lucknow is Dasheri country, so Alphonso is a second mango on the table. Fresh fruit is seasonal; the 2027 season opens on 1 February 2027.
You can compare boxes and sizes in our mangoes delivered across India.
Alphonso mango in a Dasheri city
Lucknow knows mangoes. The Malihabad belt near the city is famous for Dasheri, and families here have their own opinions about Dasheri, Langra and Chausa. So an Alphonso order from the Konkan coast, far from the city, needs a reason. The reason is that Alphonso is a different eating experience, and many people in Lucknow want a box of it each season next to the mangoes of their own region.
This page is for that buyer. It explains what we send, what to expect and how to handle the fruit in a north Indian summer. We are AlphonsoMango.in, run by Powle Home Foods in Mumbai. The Alphonso we sell is Hapus from the Ratnagiri and Devgad belt on the Konkan coast, sourced across 48 villages, and we hold GI Authorised User certificate AU/5974/GI/139/260 (GI No. 139). The full details are on our our published brand facts.
How Alphonso differs from Dasheri
We sell Alphonso and, when in season, Dasheri, so we will not say one beats the other. Taste is personal. Here is a plain comparison of what is documented and what we sell.
| Point | Alphonso (Hapus) | Dasheri |
|---|---|---|
| Home region | Konkan coast of Maharashtra | North India, with the Malihabad area near Lucknow well known for it |
| Pulp | Rich, creamy and non-fibrous | Ask your seller how it is described |
| How we sell it | By the dozen, from Rs 1,849 | On its own product page when in season |
| Our certificate | GI Authorised User certificate AU/5974/GI/139/260 (GI No. 139) | None claimed by us |
If you want to see our Dasheri, the page is Dasheri mango online. If you want to know what makes a real Hapus, our guide to how to identify authentic Hapus mango lists the clues, and we say clearly there that no home test is proof. For the story of the name and the GI, see the Alphonso GI tag explained.
Which Alphonso box to order
Both the Ratnagiri Alphonso dozen boxes and the Devgad Hapus pages offer a dozen in several grades. Both are Alphonso. We do not rank one above the other, and the choice comes down to the grade and the price on the page you like. Ratnagiri is a district and Devgad is a taluka in Sindhudurg district.
- First trial: one dozen in a smaller grade, from Rs 1,849.
- Bigger fruit: a larger grade, which weighs more. A dozen weighs roughly 1.8 to 3.3 kg depending on the grade.
- Showpiece or gift: the largest grades; the biggest Ratnagiri option goes up to Rs 5,399, and the biggest listing on our order-online page goes up to Rs 10,499.
Check the product page for today's price, as prices can change. We sell by the dozen and the grade, and we do not quote a per-kilo number.
Handling Alphonso in Lucknow summer heat
Lucknow summers are hot and dry, and mangoes ripen faster in heat. A firm Alphonso that would take several days in a cooler place can ripen in fewer days here. Plan for it.
- Open the box the hour it arrives and lay the fruit in a single layer.
- Keep it in the coolest room of the house, out of sun and away from a hot kitchen.
- Check daily. A ripe Alphonso smells sweet near the stalk and gives a little under gentle pressure.
- Put fully ripe fruit in the fridge, and take it out half an hour before you eat it.
- Do not refrigerate unripe fruit.
- Report any damage within 24 hours of delivery by writing to support@alphonsomango.in with your order number.
We do not use carbide. Our Alphonso mangoes are ripened naturally on hay beds. For more on ripening at home, read our ripening guide.
What to make with it
Alphonso is mostly eaten as it is, cut into cubes or scooped from the skin. It also works in recipes. Wikipedia describes the pulp as rich, creamy and non-fibrous, which is why it is a good choice for smooth recipes. Try one of these on our site: aamras, mango kulfi, mango sheera or mango lassi.
Outside the season, use the ready-to-use Alphonso pulp. It is made from Alphonso, comes in 850 g and 3.1 kg sizes from Rs 590 and is available all year. Fresh Alphonso is harvested from about February to June, with the best supply from March to May, and the 2027 season opens on 1 February 2027.

Is Alphonso better than Dasheri?

How our mangoes are grown and ripened
Naturally grown. Naturally ripened. Checked with science. AlphonsoMango.in fruit comes from family orchards and 120+ partner farmers in 80+ villages along the Konkan coast, each near the sea or an estuary.
- Naturally grown, not certified organic: our farming SOP allows no synthetic fertiliser and no chemical pesticide. Farmers use farm-made inputs such as jeevamrutha, panchagavya and neem extract.
- Hand harvested before dawn: picked with a Nutan pole; trees are never shaken.
- Checked twice: 15 to 20% of fruit is rejected at the orchard and a further 18 to 20% after ripening.
- Naturally ripened on hay beds: no calcium carbide, ever, and no ethylene gas added.
- Residue-tested: by an independent NABL lab, within Codex limits.
