The sapodilla is a long-lived fruit tree. It belongs to the Sapotaceae family and is native to Central America and Mexico. In Indonesian, it is called "sawo manila" (Manila sapodilla) because it was introduced to the region via Manila, Philippines, by the Spanish. The fruit is very sweet and juicy. It is a seasonal fruit, meaning it is not available all year round. The tree is lush and tall.

Considering we are right next to Mexico, I’m very surprised I’ve never heard of this fruit.

I think I remember seeing the fruit tree in Panama in the farms in the interior of Panama.
