Default Re: Raja Puri taste report

On the topic of Raja Puri, I am going through a bunch of Pisang Raja right now and I swear it is the same as Raja Puri. Different plant all together as Pisang Raja is a tall variety, but I have to wonder if the two are in the same group.

The people that do wine talk a lot about terroir and I have to believe that it does make a difference in bananas as well. Surely a muck grown banana from Florida would be different than a banana grown in San Diego. You guys have a longer time on the tree, less humidity and the ratios of nutrients in your soils are much different.
