Description
The King Umberto tomato or Fiascone is grown on the uncontaminated soils of the Amalfi Coast. Harvested since 1878, then disappeared from the fields to return finally back thanks to few farmers from Tramonti who guarded the seeds. The “Re Fiascone” come back is a result of the crowdfunding started by Acarbio with a contribution of CREA-ORT Pontecagnano (project RGV-FAO). It is a rich in flavour reddish purple tomato with an intense velvet taste. Excellent for sauce and as pizza topping.
