Tropical Fruit Discussion / Re: What is the best tasting avocado variety?

Regarding Florida avocados, a lot has been said in the past year about Dupuis, Kampong, Oro Negro, and Lara's Improved Pollock. Mainly by Paul N. on his YT channel!
The dude loves avocados. My neighbor has an excellent seedling avocado, which probably came from Lula in my estimation. (If I were to give it a name, I might call it Super-Lula. It's larger than Lula with a higher flesh-to-seed ratio and less of the sweet flavor that a lot of people don't like.) We stripped his tree about 2 weeks ago because the squirrels were damaging all the fruit. If they had hung on the tree another month, I think they would have been unbelievably good (for a FL avocado). I sure would like to see it grafted onto rootstock and evaluated further. His tree is growing under less-than-ideal conditions.
