Summary of Black Sapote Eco
Category
Product details
The Black Sapote is a fruit native to Central America with a number of properties, including:
- It helps prevent anemia.
- It improves digestion and is considered a natural laxative when consumed fresh.
- It gives your body an instant energy boost.
- It is attributed with antibiotic properties.
- It helps strengthen the immune system.
Seasonal Calendar
In Tenerife, the organic sapote season varies depending on the variety grown and local weather conditions. Generally, the harvest schedule is:
- Black sapote (Diospyros digyna): from November to April.
White sapote (Casimiroa edulis): from March to June.
Mamey sapote (Pouteria sapota): from May to September.
These periods may vary slightly depending on the specific microclimate of the area, but in Playa San Juan, with its warm and sunny climate, good production is favored.
Selection tips
Here are some tips for selecting the perfect organic sapote:
- Color and texture: Depending on the variety, it should have a uniform skin that is slightly soft to the touch. A very hard sapote is not yet ripe.
- Aroma: A ripe sapote gives off a sweet and pleasant aroma.
- Weight: It should feel heavy for its size, which indicates good pulp and juiciness.
- No visible damage: Avoid fruits with bruises, cracks, or signs of mold.
Conservation
Storage: We recommend leaving it at room temperature and avoiding the use of the refrigerator, as it could lose its properties and texture.

Ana P. –
I was dying to try black sapote, and the one they bring from Playa San Juan has blown me away. The pulp, when it's perfectly ripe, is incredibly creamy, almost like a natural pudding. Honestly, if you weren't told what it was, you might think it was a light chocolate dessert, but without the cocoa!

If you enjoy experimenting with new flavors and supporting local produce, you have to try it. Just make sure it's nice and soft before eating it, like a very ripe persimmon.

I prepared it by mixing the pulp with a little orange juice and honey, and it's the healthiest and most delicious dessert I've had in a long time. Plus, since it's organic, I have peace of mind knowing it's pure fruit without pesticides.
