Aguaje is a tropical fruit native to the Amazon rainforest, particularly found in countries like Peru and Brazil. It is known for its distinctive shape, resembling a small, elongated cucumber, and its bright reddish-purple skin. The fruit is rich in vitamins, especially vitamin A, and is often consumed fresh or used in smoothies and desserts. The Aguaje tree, scientifically known as Mauritia flexuosa, thrives in swampy areas and can grow up to 25 meters tall. The fruit is not only popular for its taste but also for its health benefits, including promoting skin health and boosting the immune system.
