Exotic Cherimoya
About one year ago we were having diner in a restaurant in the south of Europe, with at the end a remarkable desert. It was fruit the size of a big pear with patchy brown and slightly damaged skin, creamy white flesh inside with black glossy rather big seeds. The taste was marvellous mellow sweet hence fresh, thanks to a noble acidity, with hints of banana, pineapple, strawberry, but actually better than those. After some searching we found out this fruit was the Cherimoya. The one we grew is probably the Spanish/Portuguese cultivar. Our next challenge is now to grow the tropical fruits, because they were so good!
