Very nice  berry flavor,  skin moderate thick but sweet, no crunch. Weighed in at .58 oz or 16.5 g.
I would give it an 8 on 1-10 scale.

Nice job Mike!  It is definately a keeper fig in my book.  The figs are ugly but you described to take right on!  I thank VS for bringing attention to this tree.  It really is good.

It sure is an ugly fig but if it tastes good and is cold hardy it's a winner in my book.
