I don't have ichiban but i have 2 kins of japanese eggplants growing. Based on my experience, they are mild-sweet especially when harvested young. They are quite early to compared to italian eggplants.

I suggest you harvest them around 6". the more mature the fruits, the more seedy it will become.

BTW, Welcome to TV.
