The Tomate Black Beauty is a late-season variety known for its striking appearance and rich flavor. Developed in 2016 by Brad Gates of Wild Boar Farms, this indeterminate tomato produces slightly flattened, lightly ribbed fruits weighing between 100 to 300 grams. The skin exhibits a deep black-violet hue due to high anthocyanin content, while the flesh is a dark red-purple, offering a thick, meaty texture with an excellent flavor that intensifies after harvest. 

Note: Delivered in craft paper seed bag (see second photo).
