Corragio?

I was generously given a corragio cutting as a bonus that came with some other cuttings. I haven't been able to find much on this variety. Its doing well and I'm curious what to expect from it. Anyone have any experience with it?
Thanks

That name seemed familiar to me so I checked the old Belleclare nursery list ( famous nursery that is now closed). It seems that it is BC#45 fico nera from corragio, Abruzzo Italy. Supposedly it is a medium black fig with white flesh and a red center with two crops. Hope this helps.

There are apparently two figs called Corragio.  The one from Belleclare mentioned above, and one from Boris which is a European (English Brown Turkey).   http://http://figs4funforum.websitetoolbox.com/post/corragio-8277083?highlight=corragio&pid=1293726458

 This is Boris' European Brown Turkey type Corragio.






Thanks!
