Description

Kimi Sika is from the Grecian Isle of Evia. There, they grow them commercially. When harvested, the figs are split in half and dried in the sun. They are then 'buttered' with a sticky honey-like substance and 'glued' back together, before being packaged and shipped out internationally. The figs take on a pumpkin-like shape as they ripen. They are extremely sweet, (nearly twice as sweet as my Panache, for a reference) and have a strong berry jam flavor. The skin is a little chewy, but sweet, and it adds to the eating experience, as it forces one to extend the time that the palate can savor the goodness. An easy 10/10 !
