Thanks Viaggiatore!
I have been looking for Rigato del Salento and this really helps show the difference!  Wat is the taste like?
Does Rigato del Salento produce fiorone (brebas)? 
Also are you familiar with Oro another Italian striped fig?

Yes it produces breba. It is a mutation of the Dottato fig.

Pino ,

I believe Oro is a biffero as per Francesco . You might've seen my post on facebook. The interior or Oro looks similar to RDS, however we don't know if they are identical. RDS biferro is a rare type and only few growers got this variety as far as I know.

yes Pino,
my Rigato del Salento produce Brebas

BUT 
there isn't only one Rigato del Salento, in the Puglia region there are several striped fig that take everyone's name Rigato of Salento, there is a Rigato del Salento that produces one time

I did a little research

@Raf - Interesting to know! Would have never figured this fig came from Dottato!  Thanks

@Vinny - have seen the Oro fig posts on you facebook!  It also looks good.  Thanks

@Viggiatore - You really nailed variegated figs on your blog!  Excellent work!

Viggiatorre, nice work on that research! Those are all beautiful figs! I would be interested in seeing the inside of the others as compared to the Panachee & Salento you show here but that may not be too easy.
