Description:

This blushing heirloom tomato, said to have been grown by the Cherokees, has roots that date back to at least 1890. With skin that ranges to dusky rose to deep burgundy, and a brick red interior, the Cherokee purple is one of the most full flavored of the large heirlooms available. Its delicate taste is a perfect sweet/acid blend. Like many other heirloom tomatoes, its skin is thin and it is softer than the hybrids we usually find at the market. As for serving, simplicity is the key. Slice the 8 and top with a little salt, chopped basil and a drizzle of balsamic vinegar to bring out the flavor.
