Striped German Tomato
Certified Organic
Solanum lycopersicum
A classic for good reason: One of the best tasting tomatoes.
If you look closely enough at this complex-flavored tomato, you can sort of make out parts of the German flag--stripes of red and yellow decorate the tomato much like the stripes of red and gold (plus black) decorate the flag. While this might be a bit of a stretch, it's not a stretch to say that this beefsteak tomato is smooth and flavored with complex, fruity notes. And pay attention when you slice up this beauty! The marbled interior is a sight to see (and then eat, of course).
