So, we’re calling garcinia lateriflora sour pear now. It’s been an impressive harvest and the fruit is interesting but...
A lot of fruit people have tried this fruit and are impressed by the interesting complexity of flavor within which there is a very distinctive pear flavor. But, the tasting experience finishes sour. It’s funny how at first it’s not that sour but then acid dominates. It’s nice to sample but I don’t think anyone could eat very much of this fruit.
The tree is beautiful, dioecious, and the fruit has wonderful presentation.
