The Langra mango, also known as Langda, is a renowned variety originating from Varanasi, Uttar Pradesh. The name “Langra,” meaning “lame” in Hindi, is believed to have been derived from a local farmer who had a physical disability and was colloquially referred to as ‘Langra.’ It is medium-sized oval shaped variety with flesh deep yellow to golden in colour offering a rich, sweet, and slightly tangy taste.
