Not as sweet as our blacks but worth trying for any serious collector or grower so you understand the difference. This particular one is from Almoguera and was so beautiful. Very firm texture and good taste. Hope that helps
Nice. I'm excited about putting some out next year. I've set my mind on about 50 varieties I'll be planting and then there are an additional ten that will fluctuate between now and then.
