| When tasting the radish it had mild flavor to start and a little spicy kick. Our yield was not that great due to the wet weather. |

| Good germination and they were uniform and resistant to cracking. They were a bit less crunchy than some of the other radishes we have grown. This is probably the reason they were very few cracked radishes at harvest. If cracking is a concern, I would definitely recommend this variety. |

| Radishes were crisp, juicy, and had beautiful color. There was a hint of heat but not overwhelming. The second batch harvested a couple of weeks later -- some were a little woodier but still good. |

| A mild, peppery flavor with subtle spiciness and earthy undertones, the leaves were used in a soup. I used the radishes in a pasta salad. |
