Premium Japanese Mesta Mangosteen
Commonly found in Pahang and Sabah districts of Malaysia, Mesta Mangosteen is a rare form of Mangosteen. It is also commonly known as Japanese or Crystal Mangosteen. Mesta Mangosteens are distinct from regular mangosteens because they have very thick peels that are darker in color, are often seedless or nearly seedless, and have a firmer and slightly crunchy flesh that explodes with full-on sweet-sour flowery mangosteen flavor when you take a bite.
At first glance, you may find it difficult to differentiate between both categories but upon closer inspection, you will find that Mesta Mangosteen does not have true seeds. Mesta mangosteens are of a higher quality which are juicier and sweeter than the normal ones. They are easily recognizable by their sharp and pointed bottoms as compared to the normal ones which are round.
They are believed to have the “cooling” properties to balance and reduce the “heatiness” of the durians too.
