heard about disaster tasting at CRFG Irvine today, glad I skipped.
Looking forward to Mangoes for 2017, hope these rains dont ruin the plans.
yes Behl, the fruits were washed out from all the rain. The highest score I gave was 2.5 out of 5, four moyas received a 0 I spit them out. We'll right off this year and look forward for next years crop....I'll post pix later
Hey Frank, which variety did you give the 2.5 to? I liked Orton the best of those in the tasting. It had decent texture and a nice mango/pineapple finish. I also liked the Nata as well. The first one I tasted was quite good and had more acid and a bit of a citrus finish, which I liked. I went back to taste the Nata again, but there was a fresh serving and it was not as good. The Pierce I had was okay, but a bit grainy and maybe washed out in taste?
