This is the second fig from a rooted cutting in the spring of 2013. I am updating this one because it was soooo much better than the first. After tasting this one I could see where the first one was an abomination of what it suppose to be. The skin was thin and not chewy at all. The flavor was honey and sweet honey dew melon. I upped this one from an 8 to a 9 and it is probably the best tasting light fig of the season. A really nice refreshing yellow fig.
