Is this and Adriatic fig?

I bought this fig tree that was labeled as an Adriatic fig. However, the fruit does not look like any Adriatic pictures I have seen. Can anyone tell me if this is an Adriatic fig or not? The flavor is very strong and if they are not overly ripe they  have a terrible bitter taste that I have not tasted in other fig types. Even when they are fully ripe there is still a bit of a bitter tone along with the sweetness. If this is not an Adriatic fig and you think you might be able to ID it, all guesses are welcome.

Thank you for confirming my suspicion. Any guess as to what it might be?
