Lemon Drop Mangosteen, has a tangy, citrus-like flavor with a balance of sweet and sour — similar to a mix of lemon, tangerine, and mangosteen. The pulp is juicy, refreshing, and slightly fibrous, with a bright tropical acidity that makes it a great palate cleanser.
When fully ripe, the sourness mellows out, leaving a pleasant, candy-like sweetness. Some people compare the taste to a sour orange or passion fruit with a hint of mango.
It's a highly underrated Garcinia species — fast-growing and productive.
