The Carbon Tomato is a unique and flavorful heirloom variety known for its dark, smoky color and rich, complex taste. The medium to large-sized fruits typically weigh 8–12 ounces, with a deep purplish-brown color and dark green shoulders. The flesh is dense and juicy, offering a sweet, smoky flavor with a slight tanginess, making it perfect for slicing, sandwiches, or fresh salads.
Indeterminate plants grow to 5–7 feet tall, producing a steady harvest of these flavorful tomatoes throughout the growing season. They thrive in full sun and require consistent moisture to maintain the best flavor and texture. Due to the size of the fruit, staking or caging is recommended for support.
80-85 days from transplant. First mentioned in Seed Saver's Exchange yearbook in 1998, by George Weiss of North Babylon, NY. Resists cracking and cat-facing better than other large, black heirlooms
