Caimito Season in Cuba 2025

A purple 'star' among the Cuban fruit that​ will become your ultimate love at first bite

Best time: February–June

Probably the most tropical fruit that you can taste in Cuba. It has got sweet purple pulp that is the only part that you can actually eat. The easiest way to taste a caimito is to chill the fruit, cut it in half and spoon the pulp out. Caimito is also called a 'star apple' as its core resembles a star when cut in halves. If you want to pick the fruit on your own, keep in mind that caimitos don't fall when ripe. ​
