Description

From David:

2019 Find: “Firehouse” is quite a fig. It has a unique flavor and texture profile, that of apple pie filling with a hint of spiciness in the skin similar to a cinnamon sugar, and a berry tang finish. The thicker skin is not chewy, but still firm to bite in to. Firehouse has a mild seed, golden part of the fruit is more apple pie, and the red carries a berry tang.

Yellow to burnt orange and amber. Velvet skin, false eyes w/honey

Not enough is known about this "variety" to take what is said by David into account. We highly advice you to further extend your own research before even considering adding it to your collection.
