Taste one??

I have grown them and mine were sort of deep pinkish-not as dark as say a black krim or black russian.

You have good taste-it`s a wonderful tomato

Were I growing them this year I would gladly send some.

This heirloom game is getting silly-so many great varieties to try and only limited space.

This year I have missed out on Brandywine,Eva Purple,Prudens Purple,Caspian Pink and it goes on.

Best `newcomer` `Rose`

Biggest let down-Ananas Noir`-it didn`t grow/crop well at all
