Matures a few days after Roja. Cloves are dark brown and doubles are common. Average cloves per bulb 9 to 14. Our stock was originally from Dacha Barinka in British Columbia. A strong garlic aroma, initially hot and spicy garlic, but not overwhelming and then mellowing to a warm pleasant, sweet aftertaste.
Double cloves are rare.
A strong character and a great storing qualities. Raw, a tongue tingler, smooth becoming very hot. Sorry Sold out for 2001 Mild but robust with a smooth texture when baked. Smooth and creamy-sweet baked. A tasty mild to moderate garlic when eaten raw.
