Black Jack

Tomato Black Jack is a mid-late variety with a tall plant reaching about 1.8 meters in height. The plant requires staking due to its thick stem and exhibits good resistance to late blight and spotting, simplifying care and increasing yield. The vegetative period is approximately 65 days after transplanting seedlings, allowing for relatively quick fruiting.

The fruits of tomato Black Jack are large, weighing from 200 to 500 grams, with a rounded-oval shape and a rich dark red-purple color with distinctive dark shoulders. The flesh is juicy, meaty, and aromatic, with low seed content, making them especially attractive for fresh consumption. The flavor is mild with a slight salty note that intensifies with heat treatment, making this variety ideal for making sauces and tomato paste.

Due to its versatility, tomato Black Jack is suitable for salads and fresh consumption, as well as for canning and culinary processing. Its thin skin and dense flesh ensure excellent quality when preparing various dishes. Historically, this variety is associated with traditional French markets, where it is prized for its rich flavor and aroma, reminiscent of family heirlooms.
