Eric I would have to say your Copras caught up and surpassed my pile of onins.

How are they on flavor. Sweet, hot, mild?

I will definitely be growing Candy again next year. Walla Walla's aint got nothing on these.

How long do these onions store for?

I've had good luck storing them 6 months or more.

This is what Johnny's Select seed had to say,

Uniform, "rock-hard" storage onion with early maturity. These medium-sized, dark yellow-skinned storage onions have the preferred blocky round shape with thin necks that dry quickly. Firmness and skin are superior. Copra remains one of the absolute best in our yearly storage trials, staying firm and flavorful after most other varieties have sprouted. Highest in sugar (13°-14°) of the storage onions. Adaptation: 38°-55° latitude.

Update on my Copra onions.

Today is Jan 31 2012. I have about 10 gallons of onions in storage. Storage They are still in the five gallon buckets. It's been about 4 months and they are still rock solid. I really should be taking better care of these.
