The Brazilian is not grown commercially because of poor yield but you seemed to have done great especially considering your growing conditions. It's just really nice when people put forth an effort to grow these less productive cultivars, again Congrats!!!

It's sad when you read about once popular local cultivars becoming rare or lost because of folks switching to more productive disease resistant cultivars.
