Flavor profile, what are they similar too?

I have a second year Black Zadar and there is a single breba nearing ripe stage, and a host of main crop to come.  For me it was not a fast rooter and it had about average growth.

Last year, when I started it, I left one fig on the young plant for fun and excitement, and very late, at the end of October, it was one of the best figs I ever had (we had a warmer October than usual).  This year's figs will be much earlier I think.  It had a rich sweet berry flavor.  I need to taste a few more premium varieties to be able to compare but it was a 10 for me.  Maybe I should rate it 9.5, since maybe something will be better in the future.

Good luck with yours!

My single breba floored me with its rich sweet taste.  First photo has a Desert King breba in the photo as well.
