Mamey is the big, brown-skinned sapote with sweet orange-red flesh that tastes like sweet potato meets pumpkin pie, grown in Florida and shipped fresh to your door.
Fresh Mamey Fruit From Florida Farms
This box brings you fresh mamey fruit in an 8 or 12 pound order, and these red mamey sapote are grown right here in Florida and tend to run huge. Under the thick, semi-rough brown skin sits dense, creamy flesh in shades of orange to salmon-red, with a fine, smooth texture and a flavor people compare to sweet potato, pumpkin, honey, and a touch of cinnamon. It is rich enough to eat with a spoon straight from the skin and even better blended into a classic mamey shake or batido.
Just do not confuse it with black sapote, which is a different fruit altogether. We created this box because so many people kept asking where to buy mamey online, and ours comes from the same family farms our growers have tended for decades. Every mamey delivery is backed by our Arrive Fresh Guarantee, so your fruit arrives ready to ripen on the counter.
