Diospyros nigra
Maher is one of the standout Black Sapote selections, known for its consistently high fruit quality and smooth, creamy flesh. When fully ripe, the fruit transforms into a rich, dark brown pulp with a texture just like chocolate pudding.
The flavour is mild, sweet and smooth — perfect for eating fresh or using in desserts, smoothies and baking.
