Butterfields Candy - 2.5oz Bag • Mango Buds
You can still feel the fibers on it.
A ripe mango announces itself before you ever taste it, a heady, perfumed fragrance at the stem, a mix of honey and tropical blossom and something warm you can't quite name. Then you bite in. The flesh is velvety, overflowing with sweet juice, golden and deep. The sweetness is loaded. It is rich, nectar-like, but it never goes flat because there's a subtle tartness underneath holding everything in balance. And then a finish that is slightly floral, warm, and unlike any other fruit you've ever tasted.
That is what our Mango Bud captures. Like a loaded kiss. The tang, the sweetness, the tropics on your tongue, the fibers still on it. Not mango-flavored. Not mango-inspired. Mango - the way it tastes when you're pulling it apart with your hands and the juice is running and you don't care.
