Default Re: Blue Java

I have both Namwah and Blue Java and do like them both a lot.
My recent bunch harvested about 2 weeks ago tasted fantastic. Most of my family, friends and neighbors liked it better than the winter ripened Namwah bunch harvested back in March. I personally have liked it a lot in banana bread and (well it is its name, right?) homemade ice cream. Out of hand I probably liked them equally with Blue Java being more of a custard consistency, though not the vanilla taste as often described, but more fruity compared to Namwah which was just sweet.
If you have the space, I would grow them both.
