Yes someone else suggested it was Mangosteen. I think that could be it..

One of the things I've really enjoyed about your posts are the descriptions of your journey that are not strictly botanical. These create not only a real sense of suspense and immersion in another country but highlight and emphasise the splendour and importance of the gardens themselves. Your descriptions of plants are full of clarity, managing to create a sense of awe, while also offering expertise and knowledge.

Is the mystery fruit wild Mangosteen perhaps? Of course, this 'expert opinion' comes from looking online here in the UK, so you can take it for the guess that it is.
