Chinook Tomato is a remarkable heirloom-style variety bred by renowned Canadian tomato breeder Karen Olivier. It is admired for its beautiful purple oxheart-shaped fruits, exceptional flavor, and dense, meaty texture. The attractive potato leaf foliage adds to its distinctive appearance, making it a standout variety in any heirloom tomato collection.
The medium to large oxheart fruits are rich in flavor with an excellent balance of natural sweetness, mild acidity, and complex tomato richness. With very few seeds and a silky, meaty flesh, Chinook is perfect for fresh slicing, sandwiches, salads, and gourmet recipes.
