I had a private email stating they are different. It states when Niagara Blk ripens
it has a drop of honey. Unfortunately the email came from a friend who heard it
from another fig collecter. It was reported that it is high quality. I know in the
past(fig newbie then) every fig I had was like a taste from heaven. Now my taste
bud is a little spoilt by VdB, Nardi Blk etc.
I am interested to find out whether they are similar and how good it is because
there are many supposed to be "excellent" figs in my getting smaller collection. I
try not to miss out on a local great variant if it is so good tasting & ripens here.
