Pouliquen currently distributes four organic classic tomato varieties:
- The organic vine tomato has a pronounced ripe tomato aroma. This enticing smell comes from the sap in the stem. The vine tomato is therefore marketed with its stem. Apart from whetting your appetite with summery scents, the green parts of tomatoes, stems and stalks are also good indicators of the freshness of the fruit.
- The organic round tomato has a beautiful, regular shape and a lot of flesh. It is probably the most well-known and most widely consumed tomato. It can be eaten both raw and cooked. The organic round tomato is only sold in bulk.
- The organic baby plum tomato is small and oval-shaped. Its firm flesh makes it crunchy and its very sweet taste has made it a favourite of consumers in many countries for several years.
- New! The organic cocktail tomato. This variety is larger than the cherry tomato, but smaller than the vine tomato. It is a fleshy and juicy tomato, both sweet and fruity. Often sold on the vine, it will add a cheerful touch to your aperitifs. The organic cocktail tomato is also perfect for salads.
Seasonal availability:
- Organic round and vine tomatoes: available from March to December
- Organic cocktail tomatoes: available from June to October
- Baby plum tomatoes: available from May to September
