Fig Variety Review: Nostrano

Nostrano is a new variety for me and it ripened only one fig at the very end of the season. Despite this, it did have a good flavor, which was very sweet and seems to be a honey fig flavor for me. This variety is part of the Nikky collection of figs.

This fig is not sold in Japan, but when I saw the video, it looks delicious, your video has a lot of fig varieties that can't be purchased in Japan, and I'm enjoying watching it

One should be careful with those sellers of cuttings, who give unordinary names to the figs. I'm sure it has some other common name, remains to identify it. It seems for the interest of trade, some unethical tactics are employed by "naming" otherwise known figs.

This is one of Nikky’s fig varieties. IMO there is obvious photoshopping of the colors of his photos and I have doubts that a lot of the varieties are common, but I haven’t heard of any claims that he is renaming figs; of course, yes, we should always be wary of that.

@@FigLifedotcom Fully agree. My comment is based on observation indicating that at least some varieties sold from Italy from collectors are basically not known anywhere else by their names. On top of that - one and the same of those varieties is offered with a different name. Example: "Violetta gigante" and "Deos Negra". And actually both look exactly as Black Mission breba, or Collar.

In italian, the word "nostrano" simply means a local variety. It is not a fig name.
