What Guava variety is the best for Guava Wine
Araca Pera, Brazilian Guava Wine
Araca Pera, Brazilian Guava tree (Psidium x angulatum)
- 🍷 Araca Pera, or Brazilian Guava tree (Psidium x angulatum), is a unique Guava hybrid of a flavorful wild guava from the Brazilian Amazon which is rare in cultivation.
- 🍷 These fruit are 1.5-2", with an acidic, sour guava-like flavor. Its juice is concentrated and must be diluted and sweetened to produce a delicious drink.
- 🍷 It is the major source of a special Guava Wine production. Our favorite Guava Wine is from Schnebly Redland's Winery - this is where we obtained the seeds from their mother plants. This refreshing and vibrant rose wine is full of flavor and has a bouquet that never stops.
- 🍷 The fruit is processed into ice cream sorbet, gelatins and candies.
- 🍷 A great container specimen or a bushy tree for frost-free gardens.

What is your favorite Guava variety?
Our top pick? Tikal Guava!
Okay, we'll admit it - the tree growth habit can be pretty weird: branches grow at some interesting 90-degree angles, giving it a bit of a wild, chaotic vibe. Think Barbados Cherry bush - if you've seen that unruly spectacle! 😰
But let's focus on what really matters: the fruit. Tikal produces the best pink guava, no contest! It is disease-resistant, fast-growing, super sweet, and boasts very few seeds - huge bonus! Plus, Tikal is a reliable producer, making it perfect for beginners or anyone eager for quick, delicious results. 🌟
