Crispy Honey Kumquat - Lunar New Year
Pau:
I seen those wrappings at a local asian grocery store, no clue it was the honey crisp and thought it was meiwa. Going to try it now.

I tested these kumquats, and honestly can't relate to the hype. Also, I made a couple of family members test them, and they didn't enjoyed it.
Common nagami kumquat is far superior (except for the seeds)!
Pau:
Seedless is what got my attention. Any bite size fruit without seeds is awsome. Since there is mix review i have to try it myself ;D

Pau, if you want a seedless Nagami, just buy some scions of Nordmann seedless nagami kumquat from UCR. It is 100% seedless, but no way is it sweeter or better than a Meiwa or Crispy Honey.

I have not measured any citrus fruits (over 50 types) with a brix of 20 ever. If you can find a citrus with brix=16, that is a very sweet fruit.
Pau:
Nagami is too sour for me. I bought meiwa last year and fruits are still smaller than it should be because it is growing. I might look into the norman seedless as my kids dont mind nagami sourness at all. Thanks for the info.
