Unknown Brandon Fig - 2016 Tasting

I finally got a properly ripe Brandon St. Unknown fig recently and it's a real winner. Better tasting than VDB or RDB. The taste ranks up there.  It produces 2 crops here successfully here in Seattle. Judging from the looks of this fig. My guess is that it is a sport from the Celeste Family. A sugar fig of some sort.

What makes it stand out in this area is that it holds it's brebas unlike most Celeste and it ripens the main crop as well which is extremely rich and sweet!

The Breba crop is super early and probably will be the first ripe breba you'll pick from your collection.

I have a few cuttings available from the main tree and is for sale on Ebay.
