Tasting notes and description

Made up of many fused clusters, and the smaller, individual, oval pieces are generally the size and shape of grape tomatoes. These knobbly cluster tomatoes make up several cherry tomatoes to form a single fruit. Also called Travellers tomato as each little blob can be picked off without harming the rest of the fruit. They have a sharp punchy start with a softer salt&pepper finish. A juicy, tough skinned but refreshing tomato. Rich red in colour.

Uses

They're great in salads or munched straight off the plant, or even (oven) roasted.
