Jatoba Hymanea courbarii
Superfood from the cerrado. Undesrcible Jatoba flavor Chalky but sweet and weirdly addicting. The locals use is at as topping for Acai. Edible out of hand but dry, on Acai it was utterly amazing and too good to be healthy!
Spondia purpurea
Very tasty and sweet for a spondia. No bitterness or astrigency. Alot of flesh. Found commercially cultivated and loved for juices.
Inga cylindrica
very little flesh and bitter towards seed coat but very cool looking fruit.
Plinia Sabara de cabinho Medium sweetness compared to others Jabos but complex with a tart lemony finish. Smaller size and very small seeds.
Campomanesia pubescens very tasty larger and harder seeds than the sp we found earlier. No tartness and mild campo flavor
Sallacia crassiflora WOW! like vanilla, light lychee purple mangosteen flavor surrounds large seed. Very drought resistant for a sweet fruit.
Psidium bergiana variation vermelha Tastes like cherries and psidium mixed. My favorite psidium and the red coloration of the fruit makes it super rare.
Eugenia klotzchiana pear of the cerrado. Tastes nothing like pears haha. Its a very juicy sweeter and less acidic and more firm flesh that aristata. It had a bitterneess towards the skin but probably due to being a little unripe. Eugenia caipora was even sweeter and less acidic
Psidium firmum nice little psidium. Jelly and tart with medium psidium flavor.\
Anarcadium humile dwarf cerrado. Best tasting cashew fruit. Usually very very bland this species tastes more like wax apples. Nice acidity and crispy. Dwarf and bushy. Rare even for Brazilians as everyone is asking for seeds already. Doesn't fruit every year but fruits very early for a fruit tree 2 to 3 years and will stay small.
Mama Cadela Brosmium gaudichii bubble gum of the cerrado. Sweet and chewy natural slight pumpkin flavor.
