Irwin is the most popular and highest-quality mango variety in Taiwan, China. There are 7,800 hectares of Irwin orchards nationwide, with Tainan County growing the most, up to 4,200 hectares. Also known as the American mango or apple mango, Irwin was a new variety introduced from Florida in the United States by the Sino-American Joint Commission on Rural Reconstruction in 1954 (ROC year 43), and it is now also grown in places such as Mexico and Australia. It was first successfully trial-grown by Mr. Zheng Hanchi of Douliuzai, Yujing. Uncle Hanchi recalled encountering many difficulties back then and researching many cultivation methods himself, including wrapping the mangoes in nets to prevent insects, and it was only in 1964 (ROC year 53) that he had a small harvest. Because the variety had a unique character, it became hugely popular as soon as it hit the market. Back then, the wholesale price of one jin of Irwin was as high as 15 yuan, while a day's wages at that time were only 60 yuan. Harvesting one jia of mangoes could buy a building in Yujing, creating a rush to plant Irwin.
