Adam's Figs are a Keimoes Padstal institution — dried whole figs from the warm valleys of the Northern Cape, with that characteristic deep, jammy sweetness and a seed-studded interior that delivers a unique texture experience. Available in both Lightly Sulphured (lighter colour, milder flavour) and Sundried (darker, more intense, no additives) varieties. Both are exceptional in quality and flavour — the difference is purely a matter of personal preference and intended use.
