I want to preface this post with the criteria that these varieties are judged. You can find that post here:
In 2022, I have realized that a higher emphasis needs to be placed on the hang time or "susceptibility window." This is a critical characteristic that on its own can guarantee a successful and high fruit quality harvest. You'll note below that the majority of the varieties mentioned have a shorter than average hang time. Typically if they ripen earlier in my season, the hang time will be lower leading to a higher fruit quality, but varieties with a shorter hang time in August also have a shorter hang time in November again leading to a higher and more consistent fruit quality.
I am also deeply concerned with flavor and the best tasting varieties in this post are noted with an *. If I had to rank them, those varieties would probably receive a higher ranking because of their amazing taste qualities. However, the best tasting fig is the fig that ripens at the highest quality the most consistently. On any given day during fig season, I harvest many varieties at one time. The best tasting one is almost always the one that's the most ripe and at the highest quality.
