    Does anyone know where to locate high fat content avocados here? The rich and creamy types like Haas, Sherwil, or similar. The ones I have been able to find are the smooth skinned watery varieties like available in Florida. I want to find the ones with the high fat content. Do they exist here?

    Yes, they are grown here and I have eaten them, I don't know their names though, I think you should be able to buy them at the Sunday morning "Paunay"? Market up in Valencia...
