passion for raf
The RAF tomato from Almeria is an exclusive product for several reasons:
RAF tomato production is very scarce. It can only be grown in specific areas of Almeria and in a few greenhouses, since it requires very particular conditions.
The RAF tomato has a different and unique flavor. It has a crunchy texture and is a real delicacy for the most demanding palates. Its morphology is special because of its irregular shape with deep grooves. In addition, it ripens from the inside out!
Tip! When it begins to acquire a reddish tone, it will be the ideal moment to consume it. It is important to ripen the tomato and then keep it cold. Enjoy the Raf experience!
Thanks to the salinity of the water specific to the area where it is planted, the RAF tomato plant from Almeria acquires a high amount of sugars, providing a flavor that will not leave you indifferent.
It can reach up to 12 degrees Brix of sweetness! Do you want to try it? 24-48 hours after the farmer harvests it from the plant, it can reach your table! It can’t be fresher!
Join us to be a lover of the unique and incomparable RAF tomato!
