Original seed from Norbert Parreira from France and Introduced to SSE by Carolyn Male. Not known well in the U.S. Very leafy, indeterminate, regular-leaf tomato plant produces generous yields of 1 to 2 1/2-pound, slightly-flattened, bright-red beefsteak tomatoes that are some of the best-tasting red, tomatoes. Lots of delicious sweet flavors with the perfect ‘tang’ of acidity. Solid, meaty interiors make it a good slicing tomato for sandwiches or tomato sauce or tomato salads. Rare tomato seeds.
