Shan-e-Khuda
Shan-e-Khuda is a type of mango which is cultivated in some parts of Pakistan, specifically in the Multan and Rahim Yar Khan districts.
Appearance
This is a unique type of mango which has almost all the colors in its peel. The most apparent is purple.
This type is also called "sun session" because the more sun that strikes on its surface, the more colors are produced during its ripening season.
Ripening season
This type of mango ripens in the months of October and November when almost all other types are finished.
Taste
It has a sweeter taste than other types of mango, but it is not very popular in Pakistan. Therefore it has low market value.
