Hi,
Ok, this time lets face them. These are "true" Brownturkeys brebas. As supposed they have some brown on them :) .
The maincrop is less pear shaped.

This tree is 3 years old, and this year is the first year for the brebas production.
That tree is a true workhorse : some 50 figs from just that tree. No other tree in my garden can compete !
The brebas started ripening around 10th of July, this year.
The taste of the figs is good with some acidity, and with what I would call an acid wine after taste . This fig is really refreshing, no seed crunch, really fine skin.
The color shades go from green to grey and brown depending on the sun that hit the fruit.
The eye on most figs is closed, except for some for whatever the reason ...
Still worth the bite IMO, a 6/10 .
I'm glad if have that one in  my garden !
That tree is a good grower .
