Cherokee Purple Tomato

The Cherokee Purple tomato is a large, indeterminate heirloom tomato variety with a deep, dusky-rose color and greenish shoulders. The fruit has a thick skin, brick-red flesh, and a deep crimson interior. Gourmets love these tomatoes with their sweet, tart, rich, smoky flavor, with its earthy, lingering taste. For best flavor, let them fully vine ripen.
