About this variety
Machine-translated, may contain errors.
A biodynamically bred storage carrot with an exceptionally strong, full bodied aroma; many consider it the most flavourful carrot there is. The long, deep orange roots are outstanding for juice, soup and purée and store well through the winter. It needs deep, loose soil and a little patience until it is ready. Open pollinated and true to type, a real treasure for the autumn kitchen.
Intensely sweet and spicy with a long finish, giving juice and soup a deep carrot note.
