Im starting this after reading a thread in which BS Bullie stated that most cherimoyas were of better quality than atemoyas. I have cherimoya seedlings but ld only grown them as rootstock. Locally as Mike said, they have a reputation for being inferior to atemoya. Howrver they do grow better here than atemoya, so if this is true, id like to know which varieties/seeds to go for. After peoples opinions on how they compare.
I think everyone agrees that taste is subjective. I prefer cherimoyas to atemoyas but they can be pretty close to taste. Cherimoyas tend to be sweeter and more creamy in texture. Some good varieties to seek out:El BumpoOrtonSaborHoneyhartPierceNatathe list of good cherimoyas is large, but those are some good ones that come to mind.
