No kidding, but Jabuticaba looks like some rare disease at first glance. Dark purple fruits look glued onto tree’s bark creating a strange sight. But the fruit tastes absolutely sweet, very close to grape and lychee. Travellers on Reddit often describe seeing the tree for the first time as “otherworldly.”
Where to spot
Travellers can enjoy the jabuticaba in Brazil, particularly the states of Minas Gerais and São Paulo.
