In my opinion looking at fruit and leaves,it is Dotato.

Very nice tree. Is Kadota the same as Dotato ? Looks very similar to my PHoney also. Thanks for sharing.

Yes, Kadota and Dotato is the same cultivar.
Californian should have left the original name of the tree ,as it was imported from Italy and not mess with it and create confusion.
Ka-Dota,means= Kalifornia-Dotato

Edit note:As For Peter Honey,some people swear ,it is different than,Dotato,some included me say it is the same.
My Peter Honey was identical to Dotato except it was ,very much infected with Fig mosaic disease,so I discarded it.
Later after a few years of patience I discarded Dotato ,too,because it will not ripe properly here due to climate ,not being warm enough.
Dotato:Means, Adapted, in Italian,and suggest the tree can take adverse climatic conditions,but here it was not ripening properly.

Thanks Herman. Sorry to hear about your PH/ Dotato. Seems like GA has the perfect climate for those two. They react very well on full , head on sun bathing in pots as long as you keep them well watered. . I got two crops of very nice tasting figs from the PH and my first year Dotato is putting out figlets now. I doubt the will ripen but if it turns out to be anywhere near as good as PH I'll keep it.

Some Italian told me that this is write fig in Sicily.

But the skin is yellow haha ..
