Don Chonta

Visit Don Chonta in Patio Bonito on Las Vegas Avenue to try the famous Chontaduro fruit, known for its aphrodisiac properties, and enjoy his entertaining sales pitch.

In their own words: “They tell me this man is very famous in Medellín for selling a fruit called Chontaduro, which is known to have aphrodisiac properties. Every day this gentleman stands here on the street with his car, sets up his little monkey toy, his advertising, his multiple vitamins. Is it true that it is an aphrodisiac? It is an aphrodisiac and it is from the Pacific. Don Chonta is a good salesman. I thought it was going to taste more medicinal, but no, no, it's good, it's sweet, the honey made a big stop. If you want to get here like a bull, come with the boss in Patio Bonito, on Las Vegas Avenue.”
