I would argue that the vintage 92 tastes extremely citrus flavored, if that counts as fruity..

No, never had fruit, though it might be interesting for a change of pace.  As a home roaster, I do know that there are some coffees (Ethiopian & Kenyans), that if roasted to a light city, have very strong natural strawberry & apricot flavors and aromas.  Go a few seconds longer into full city, and the fruit flavors disapear.  I'm sure that 99.9% of all coffee drinkers have never tasted a unflavored fruity coffee.  I've always felt that coffee and tabacco where related flavor wise, so with say, African tabaccos, lightly fermented, the concept may not be all that far fetched.

I detect a fruit quality to a lot of maduros, but I wouldnt match the flavor to any specific fruit. if that makes any sense lol.
