Similar to Bloody Butcher

Al@NC · April 10, 2018

So I really like Bloody Butcher (it's earliness, PL, flavor and size), and I'm growing Matsu Express this year (that I received from Cole a couple of years ago). I read recently that Mikado was believed to be the parent of B.B. and Stupice. Anyways, I was curious how close the original Mikado (or Turner Hybrid) is to the taste of B.B. for those that have grown it?

I also read on Victory Seed that there's some speculation that Mikdao may have been the same as Brandywine Pink?!

Anyone here do a comparison before?

I also have read Tatiana's site about Mikado and see that she offers what appears to be a smaller version of Mikado (4-6oz). Whereas there are other sites offering a larger version such as this site.

Thanks,
Al
