## How to enjoy it

Julie brings a distinctly aromatic Caribbean personality. The flesh can suggest spice as well as sweetness; taste a cheek plain before deciding what to pair with it.

Cut ripe cheeks and scoop with a spoon. Taste the flesh plain before adding it to a dessert.

## When it is ripe

Green can be ready—trust the aroma and gentle softness.

Flavour notes are subjective. Ripeness, handling and growing conditions change the fruit.

**St. Julian**

Existing catalogue label. It may be an alternate name, translation or market nickname; it is not an assertion of genetic identity.

## A Caribbean family tree

Documented name: the history of the first tree remains unresolved.

Julie belongs to the shared mango culture of the Caribbean. Growers disagree about its precise island of origin, and older accounts do not all tell the same story. What is clear is its affectionately held place in Trinidad and Jamaica, where its name means much more than a nursery label.

A recorded introduction took Julie to Florida in 1907. Its family continued there: growers trace Sophie Frey, and through her Carrie, back to Julie. That makes a bite of a Florida favourite a small connection to Caribbean gardens. We keep the disputed birthplace open rather than give one island exclusive ownership of a shared story.
