This is the best for me this year, and with the highest acidity level.
Love it! Closed eye, juicy, beautiful fig. I can see why this classic variety is so praised !
The taste profile is between the bing sour cherries and very sweet raspberries.
And this is from a cutting rooted this February!
I can only imagine what taste will be in a few years when the tree is more mature.
Enjoy the photos.
The photo with two cut figs on a plate is of the Pastiliere and an HdA (I will post more about it in a separate thread)
