I'm growing the variety Kifli again this year, I think this is the 3rd or 4th season I've grown them. They are one of the varieties developed by the Sarvari Trust
I rather like them, although they don't have the same level of Late Blight resistance as Sarpo Axona and Sarpo Mira, they have proved resilient here a couple of times when others have been wiped out. They make a decent general purpose potato, nice as early boiled and then mashed and for jackets. I planted my seed tubers late this year and what with Late Blight affecting some of the potato plot I'm not too optimistic for harvest time. I should get something as they are flowering, even if it just a small sample to eat as (late) earlies!
Kifli is a long, white-skinned variety with outstanding flavour when prepared as a freshly harvested, loose-skinned potato. Plants show medium resistance to late-blight and high resistance to virus Yo. Kifli is best planted early as it is a slow starter. Maturity is early maincrop. The crop can be harvested gradually over a long period as larger, more mature tubers still have excellent flavour. Kifli has good resistance to splitting and bruising, to blackleg and to PCN Ro1. http://sarvari-trust.org/nationally-listed.html
