Tasting the Dr Gowaty Fig Breba

Tasting the Dr Gowaty Fig for the first time. This one came from Bill from off the beaten path.
Picked 9/8/18




As you can see in the photo it's still only a little guy that was purchased last yr. I think it's a relatively attractive fig with the crackling in the skin. The tight eye is a highly desired trait here in Seattle.


For a 1yr old tree it shows great productivity. I counted 6 figs on this one trunk. This is a once crop fig. You can see the color change from this yrs growth and last years. The figs all formed above that new growth.




56.5 Grams

I forgot to take a picture of the interior but in the video you will see that it has a strawberry colored pulp. It even tastes like strawberries minus the acid. It's subtle in sweetness and has a bright/fresh but watered down strawberry strawberry jam flavor.

A pretty good fig. The major upside is how productive it is.
