Francis mangos have grassy green skin that gradually turns golden-yellow as they ripen. It’s normal for these mangos to have splotches of green remain when fully ripe. They may have black speckling – which simply indicates sugar content – as well as some latex staining. They’re a medium-sized mango, oblong-shaped with a distinct S-curve. The flesh of the ripe Francis is vibrant golden-orange and very juicy. This is a fibrous mango prized for its flavor, rather than texture. The flesh is rich and mouth-wateringly sweet with a strong tropical aroma and a subtle, spicy bite. 
Francis mangos are recommended for juicing or smoothies, as their flavor is exceptional.
