Default What melon is this?

I need help figuring out a melon I grew years ago. This melon was bought from Park seed I think and I think I remember it being called Crenshaw but looking at pics of Crenshaw melons they don't look anything like it.

It was the size of a cantaloupe. The rind started out almost black and was covered with what I could only describe as hair. After the hair fell off it changed to a lighter green and was ripe shortly after. It was green fleshed and grew well with no care given. The taste was incredible. I am still chasing that flavor and have yet to find as good in any other melon. Any idea what this could have been?
