Rainforest Hideaway - Cape Tribulation bed and breakfast accommodation & sculpture trail in the Daintree rainforest of tropical north Queensland Australia
Exotic fruit tasting tour at the Cape Trib Exotic Fruit FarmEnjoy an exotic fruit tasting tour with Digby, an exotic fruit enthusiast who will guide you through the menu and entertain you with stories about the exotic fruits while you eat them.
You will learn how to cut and prepare the fruit, what parts to eat, what parts not to eat, and how to eat them.
Some of these fruit are starting to appear in markets - but many will never appear in the big cities, as they are too fragile to transport. They simply have to be eaten where they are grown, fresh from the tree.
Some of the exotic fruits that will tantalize your tastebuds at the tourCape Tribulation's subtropical climate is excellent for fruit trees from all parts of the world.
Digby and Alison at the Cape Trib Exotic Fruit Farm have been gradually expanding their collection of trees for many years and during a two hour session starting at 14:00 you can get an introduction to some totally new fruits and taste sensations.
You might be used to apples, oranges and bananas but wait till your tastebuds hit the soursops, custard apples, rambutans, mangosteens, salaks, carambolas etc.
Digby showing some exotic fruitExotic tropical fruit comes in all shapes and sizes - some are hairy, others have lumps and bumps or sharp spikes. Often the most unusual fruit turns out to be the most delicious.
Tempt your taste buds with new and unusual flavours such as the chocolate pudding fruit and fruit that tastes like lemon meringue pie and creme caramel.
