I tried 3 canistel before I found one I liked. Make sure you try some good varieties. Still looking for a black sapote that tastes like something! Lara farms is shipping fruit now, sells out fast though. Need to order as soon as it gets reposted.

I also have both available
Canistell in 2 types
I found the fully round ones have a dry taste-better for cooking of such
Pointed ones are better to eat fresh

Have Black sapote in 3 types-berniker-mossberg and mayher
Seem to be quite similar in taste-slightly different in size
Berniker was fastest to produce fruit for me
