Not one is as good as the cold sensitive Lakatan banana. But California Gold tasted better than Orinoco when eaten with the same skin peel color. The Claifornia Gold seems to be a hybrid of Senorita and Saba when it comes to taste but less sweeter and firmer than an overripe saba, a property that I like. Raja Puri tasted a lot better than CG, but that's just my taste buds.

I have 1.5 gallons of California Gold Wine Sherry aging. I can already see that it will be one awesome sherry wine. After all the filtering perhaps in two more months, I should net out about 4 bottles of California Gold Sherry wine.
