The Brazilian Giant banana is super sweet, creamy, with sour tones. A golden yellow when fully ripe, their texture is slightly firm like that of a ripe plantain, yet still offers a silky mouthfeel. They are superiorly sweet but balanced with a hint of tart green flavors, and are often regarded as one of the best-tasting banana varieties on the market.
