The 'Tommy Atkins' mango is a named mango cultivar. Although generally not considered to be the best in terms of sweetness and flavor,[1] it is valued for its very long shelf life and tolerance of handling and transportation with little or no bruising or degradation.[2]

This means it is the main mango sold in regions where mangoes have to be imported, comprising about 80% of mangoes sold in the United Kingdom and United States[dubious – discuss], apart from growing regions in California,[3] HawaiiFlorida and Jamaica. However, in France it is sold at a discount, while the main imported cultivar is Kent,[4] considered less fibrous and tastier[according to whom?].
