Mangoes are one of the most popular fruits in Taiwan, though they're not actually native to the island. Dutch settlers introduced the first mango tree in the 17th century. After World War II, the Taiwan Agricultural Research Institute imported additional mango varieties from the U.S. Hoping to improve them, innovative Taiwanese farmers and horticulturists created hybrids. There is a huge number of mango varieties in Taiwan, here we highlight 23! How many of them have you tried?
