My Mystery fig from Bass

This was one of my first fig purchases three years ago, and today the only fruit that has ripened so far had fallen off when i got home. It was pretty good tasting, a lot of melon type flavor. I have no clue what it could be, maybe an lsu gold? I know its a long shot since its the first fig but any guesses are welcome.

No guess...did Bass have a good guess?

My guess would be a syrian fig type if it's from bass.

I havent asked bass, just hoping hed stop by. It was kind of thrilling to get a mystery fig though, but then you may never figure out what it is...

Syrian honey my guess. This is a picture of bass's
Syrian honey. Does the leaves look very jagged on the edges and very unique?

My leaves dont look like that at all. The fruit looks similar though.

Travias Thats a good looking fig you got there Is it my eyes or is it clear inside? 

Dave, thanks it wasnt as clear as the picture made it look.

Not Syrian honey. I've had some Spanish figs that lost their tags, could also be a white Italian fig.

Thanks bass and others, the saga continues for now.
I'm looking forward to next years crop as it was pretty tasty already.
