Black Krim

The Black Krim tomato is a unique heirloom variety known for its deep, dusky-purple color and slightly salty flavor. Originating from Russia, specifically the Isle of Krim in the Black Sea, hence its name, this tomato typically weighs around 8 to 12 ounces (227 to 340 grams) and has a slightly flattened shape with deep, dark green shoulders. The flesh is juicy and has a complex, smoky flavor, making it popular for adding richness to salads and sandwiches. It's also prized for its high antioxidant content and distinctive appearance.
