I don't know who exports chennet/guinep, but maybe someone who reads this might be able to help. Ministries of Agriculture might know...or you could try contacting the T&T National Agricultural Marketing Development Co (<a href="http://www.namdevco.com/" rel="nofollow">NAMDEVCO</a>) - even if none of their people export guinep, they may know who in the region does.

Sometimes when we get calls, both myself and potential Customers are confused. We invite these customers to the farm, compare notes and names, and now have a list of half a dozen names for some fruits. I wish we could use one common name which would make life much easier for all concerned, but I guess that would not be too easy. I enjoy your comments.

There were two trees in the village which I remember well and once they were ripe we would do so every morning and of course the excuse was that we ate jamoon....lol not that we rubbed it on .... I am sure the teacher knew.... It was also used by some for making wine in Trinidad and still is I think.....
