Description

The San Augustino fig variety hails from Italy, where it was discovered by fig-grower, Francesco Lorusso . Its name derives from the Augustinian monastery where the mother tree was discovered. The monastery, called Convento di Sant’agostino, was located in Genova, Italy and dates back to the 13th century. What a picturesque setting to discover a great tasting fig like San Augustino.
