Chérimolier, Cherimoya Annona cherimola Espèce Annona cherimolaMill., 1768 Classification phylogénétique Le chérimolier (Annona cherimola) — appelé Cherimoya, Chirimoya, ou Churimoya en Amérique du Sud — est un arbre de la famille des Annonaceae donnant un fruit nommé la chérimole, dont le goût est semblable à celui de la pomme cannelle, du cœur de bœuf et du corossol, provenant tous d'arbres du genre Annona. Le nom de la plante provient d'un mot quechua, chirimuya, qui signifie « graines du froid » et indique que les graines sont capables de germer à de hautes altitudes.
