Two of my favorites for a dessert fruit has been 'Muraru Mshale' and 'Muraru Mulalu', M'chare subgroup members from East Africa. They have rather large fruit and bunches, and a very nice aromatic flavor and a rather thick, dense texture similar to 'Gros Michel', but also with an acidic and perhaps "fruitier" component. They are both very good, though slightly different in taste from eachother. I plan on getting more similar cultivars soon to select one with the best agronomic traits as the ones I have right now could use a little improvement if they are to be adopted by farmers. The bunches were about 80lbs (36kg) each the first time they fruited.
About 3/4 of the 'Muraru Mshale' bunch during weighing and dehanding.
