I forgot that kaffir lime actually makes fruit!  How is it compared to other limes?

Well i didn't have fruit yet from regular limes, but i think it's a bit near the flavour of faustrime finger lime but stronger flavour.

Hah, I've never had faustrime either.   Oh well.   

So far all the green limes I've tasted were pretty much the same flavor

Although I grow them in Central Europe, the fruits are finally really good, this greenhouse was built last year.
