18. CherymoyaAnnona cherimola 毛叶番荔枝（拉丁：Annona cherimola）

Cherymoya, or custard apple, is a deciduous plant found in the high lying mountainous areas of South America. The fruit is vaguely round and is found with 3 types of skin – Impressa (indented), Tuberculate (covered in nodules) or intermediate (a combination of the first two). The flesh inside the skin is very fragrant, white, juicy and has a custard like consistency. It is said that the fruit tastes like a combination of banana, passion fruit, papaya and pineapple. Mark Twain said in 1866 “ the most delicious fruit known to men, cherimoya”

毛叶番荔枝，又称软冻苹果，是南美洲连绵高山地带发现的一种落叶植物。果实隐约呈圆形，果皮有三种类型——凹痕状、结瘤状、或前两种形状的混合；内部的果肉芳香浓郁，白色多汁，肉质像奶油冻。据说水果吃起来像香蕉、百香果、番木瓜和菠萝四种水果的混合口味。马克.吐温在1866年说过“毛叶番荔枝是人类已知最可口的水果”。
