I was thinking kaki, like a chocolate persimmon.
But hadn't realized that sapote were diploids compared to the tetra/hexaploids. So you answered my question since my lab is my garden with a few tiny persimmon trees and I'm not gonna get that fancy.  I'd been looking at what other persimmons I could get that might produce interesting mixes since I'd been trying to make a little entropy and plant trees from seed.

I'd been trying to get some diospyros intricata since it's good in dry climates. But also I don't actually know their ploidy level and wouldn't be surprised if they are diploids based on the geographic closeness to where the sapotes exist, but was having trouble finding the information. That being said it might be interesting if one of those got mixed with a dignya if possible.

Where'd you get that awesome tree with all the data? I'm pretty new to this and trying to find better sources of information.

Thanks!
