Bass' Favorite Fig is a large to very large fruit with an intense berry flavor, moderate sweetness, some acidity (though this may be due to fruit being slightly over-ripe), and somewhat thick skin.
By the looks of it I can fairly say its Parsott Iswed "Maltese variety" or a seedling from this variety. Has similar weight, shape and its a common fig producing only 1 main crop. The tree itself is one of the biggest among fig trees. Taste wise one of the best exactly as you described it. Theres also a sub variety known as Parsott abjad (white) which is the same but white instead of black of excellent taste as the black one. The white variety is said to be the biggest fig tree among them all. The parsott abjad is said by many to be the king of figs for its taste, vigour and productivity. Both are ancient top notch varieties.
Reminds me a little bit on Pastilliere (colour of skin and inside, leaf pattern, moderately sweet). Nevertheless fruit size and late ripening does not match. Probably no fig for the German climate.
Nice variety I tried to make the order in the first hour but its gone unfortunately hope to see it limited next year Any way i made an order with different varieties and im looking forward
We do not plan on putting limits on this order as our quantity is adequate to reasonably meet customer demand to the extent possible. We offered two sizes this year, a quantity of 30 cuttings that were quite fat in size and we had 21 orders for those that depleted the supply in 4 minutes and 36 seconds. We also have a more normal size, 101 cuttings, and sold all of those to 64 customers in 18 minutes and 47 seconds. In the first hour we had 1,180 orders. We do not have enough trees of every variety to meet demand unless we raise prices significantly and customers certainly don't want that. Some customers think limits on order sizes will eliminate all of the problems in getting the cuttings they want but that simply is not the case. When we have over a thousand orders in an hour there is no way we can ever supply the needs of every customer. Good luck in your quest for this variety!
@@Figaholics these orders quantity in really short time indicates a quality of your work and your cuttings im so glad to deal with you for the first time Best of luck uncle
You have to live in California with access to the fig wasp to get figs like that unless you manage to figure out how to keep them alive during the winter. Also dry/hot climate!
No. I got this from Bass in Pennsylvania where he has fruited it. Descriptions of all varieties and comments about caprification requirements (to the best of my knowledge) can be found at www.figaholics.com/cuttings.htm
This fig variety is called Bass' Favorite Fig. My friend Bass, a fig grower in Pennsylvania, reported he is unsure of its origin as he lost the tag with the name for his tree and he gave it this name.
The BLACK BOURGEASSOTTE (Maltese = Parsott iswed. = brogiotto nero). The leaves are frequently almost entire, or imperfectly lobed with obtuse segments. The tree is often middling in size, but is vigorous and very productive. The fruits are broad, top-shaped or flattened, with a short and slender stalk, and ripen slowly. They are dark violet, almost black at maturity, with circular netting or fissures of the skin. The pulp is dark red, very luscious and sweet. The first fruits ripen about mid-August, and maturation is prolonged until October or even later. The tree does not require caprification. This is one of the best figs for the table.
We expect to sell cuttings of all the varieties shown in our videos again next January. Follow our Facebook page at facebook.com/Figaholics for updates on that as we get close to launching our annual sale or just watch for updates at figaholics.com
The variety is called Bass' Favorite Fig. It was an unknown fig after the tag was lost by Bass at Trees of Joy. I've answered this question a couple of other times here already.
As mentioned in your channel description, we sell cuttings of nearly all varieties we've done videos of. Our annual cutting sale should take place again in January 2020. Follow at www.figaholics.com/cuttings.htm for updates around that time as well as our Figaholics Facebook page for updates.

Beautiful fig brother.

Wow...look so sweet fig. OMG
Hello, how does BFF compare to Calderona? Could they be the same? Thank you
They are not the same, BFF are much larger fruit. Here is a video I did of Calderona: ua-cam.com/video/IbrOsybVJFo/v-deo.html
Thats the kind of fig i want to grow. Wow. This is my third year growing figs and i haven't grown one like that yet. A prize for sure👍👍👍

@@ofon2000 this fig doesn’t require a fig wasp. It is common & will grow outside of California.

Thanks for your input. I grow Brogiotto Nero and it is different than Bass Favorite Fig. Brogiotto Nero is more oblate shaped.
@@Figaholics great varieties congratulations keep them coming 💪
Wow! Can I get that same variety?
We will be offering cuttings of this variety and over 300 others again sometime in January on our figaholics.com web site.
This variety is
awesome! :) It is known only as 'Bass Favorite Fig' as my friend Bass said he lost the tag so gave it this name.
