The ‘Seacrest’ mango, also known as ‘Triple Sec’, originated in South Florida as an Edward seedling from the breeding program of Gary Zill in Boynton Beach, FL. Seacrest is a vigorous grower with a dense canopy and high disease tolerance. It produces medium-sized, bright yellow fruit that ripens in June. The flesh is fiberless, firm, and very juicy, with a classic mango flavor profile. It is known for its citrus-like flavor and is considered a delicious variety. An interesting fact about the ‘Seacrest’ mango is that it is also known as ‘Triple Sec’ because its aroma is said to resemble the orange liqueur, Triple Sec.
