The hardwood flooring we have in the house is marketed as Brazilian Cherry but its proper name is Jatoba. I use leftovers for many different projects in my workshop and was doing some research on it. In Brazil one of the local names for the tree is “Old Man’s Stinktoe” because of a smelly seed pod it produces.
I have been telling people that ask what kind of wood we have on the floor that it is Brazilian Cherry. I think from now on I will say Old Man’s Stinktoe and see if I can convince them to get on their knees and sniff it. (it has no smell)
