Anniversary Kake does get a very nice figgy taste after a few years, as the Virginia’s mature and the Perique rounds off. I would suggest putting up a pound or so every year.

If you are looking for fig flavor, keep your eye out for when Rattray's ships. Marlin Flake is pure fig, so is McConnells Scotish Flake.

I agree with Steamboat, Marlin Flake's perique is on the "figgy" side of the spectrum. I think Escudo is too, particularly aged, but it is a lot stronger than Marlin Flake. Easier to find though.
