Gardeners' verdict

The description of the tomato fully corresponds to reality. Gardeners like: unusual color, sweet taste, productivity, extended fruiting. Some daredevils grow Irish liqueur outdoors. 1-2 bushes are planted: berries are enough for the whole family.

The fruits are used for making salads, slices. The juice has original color, dense texture and sugar taste. The short shelf life of tomatoes upsets people. Tomatoes soften and rot.
