I'm trying to identify the exact cultivar or cultivars of these bananas. They are the most common type growing and at markets in in the Rio Chirripo area of Costa Rica. I thought they might be Williams, of the the AAA group of bananas.
The taste is similar to cavendish, but when fully ripe they have a hint of butterscotch.
It seems to me that there are actually two different types here.
The longer and thinner ones, seen still on a hand of bananas, taste and ripen a bit different than the shorter, fatter ones.
Neither tastes or ripens like any of the cavendish types I get back in the US.
Any idea?
