It was sweet and a little tart with a smooth smooth creamy texture that was slightly firmer than a regular banana. I wouldn't call the flavor "apple", like the manzanos at the store. I'll have to eat a few more and do a real report. So I think we can call it a Brazilian now can't we?
Yep, sounds like Brazilian, or at least a close relative also in the Pome subgroup. One my favorites.
