The Sonpari mango, sometimes spelled as Son Pari, is a hybrid variety from India, specifically a product of the national breeding program in Paria, Gujarat state. It is a cross between the renowned Alphonso and Baneshan mangoes, aiming to combine the best qualities of both. An interesting fact about the Sonpari mango is that despite being a hybrid, it has gained significant popularity and is considered a strong contender to traditional varieties like Alphonso, with farmers noting its large size and excellent taste without the spongy tissue sometimes found in Alphonso.
