Tropical Fruit Discussion / Re: Best of the New Zill Mangos

Based on a sampling of 3 Buttercream mangos that I bought last week, I like it a lot. I would say it has a classic mango flavor, so not unique or spectacular, but pretty good. Also large. I like Guava mango a lot too, because it has a different flavor profile than other varieties. Also remember liking Taralay a lot, but it's been a couple years since I have been able to try one.
In comparison to some other cultivars that I tried for the first time this year, it was easy to eat Buttercream at a stage that tasted good. (I tried Sugarloaf too soon (the flesh was nearly white though kinda soft), Orange Sherbet too late (it was still pretty good).
One other note about Buttercream. The ones I bought had plenty of fungus on the skin, but it did not affect the quality/taste. (see below)

So how do the guava buttercream and Tara lay taste or compare?
