Mangifera odorata, commonly known as kwini (also spelled kuini, kuweni, kuwini, etc.),[4] huani,[5] or Saipan mango,[2] is a species of plant with edible fruit in the family Anacardiaceae.[1] It is similar to the related mango but is characterized by a strong turpentine-like smell on the skin and fibrous flesh. It is native to tropical Southeast Asia, but its exact original native range is unknown because it is only known from cultivated specimens and is believed to be a hybrid of Mangifera indica and Mangifera foetida. It is grown throughout Southeast Asia, from peninsular Thailand, to Malaysia, Indonesia and the southern Philippines.[6][7][8] It has also been occasionally cultivated in southern Vietnam and the Marianas Islands.[9]
