Product Overview:
Mangosteen is a tropical masterpiece, legendary for its exquisite flavor and cooling properties. Sourced from high-rainfall tropical regions, our mangosteens are harvested with the "green cap" (calyx) intact to ensure maximum freshness. Beneath the thick, protective purple rind lie delicate, juicy segments that are remarkably sweet with a hint of refreshing tartness. Often referred to as a "super-fruit," it has been used for centuries in traditional wellness for its potent antioxidant properties, specifically concentrated in the rind and juice.

Storage Instructions:
Mangosteens are delicate and sensitive to heat. Store in a cool, shaded area if consuming within 48 hours. For longer freshness (up to 5–7 days), store them in a perforated bag in the refrigerator's crisper drawer. Handle with care, as the purple juice from the rind can stain fabrics.
