📌 Quick Summary (TL;DR): Almatinskiy Tricolor (Almaty Tricolor)
- 🌍 Origin: A relatively new but already highly sought-after variety bred by the famous tomato breeder Vitaly Alifirov from Almaty, Kazakhstan.
- 🌿 Plant Habit: Indeterminate (tall), vigorous, and highly productive. Usually ripens mid-season, though it can lean towards late-season in cooler climates. It keeps setting fruit well into autumn.
- 🍅 Fruit Characteristics: Gorgeous, smooth, round beefsteaks. The exterior is a stunning mix of greenish-brown and copper, while the interior reveals a beautiful tricolor pattern with a deep red blush. They grow massive, typically 500 g (1.1 lbs), with some monsters reaching up to 800 g (1.7 lbs).
- 👅 Flavor & Texture: Consistently rated as a top-tier tasting tomato. The flesh is dense, firm, and jelly-like (often described as “marmalade”). The flavor is intensely sweet, fruity, and rich.
A wonderful, beautiful variety from Vitaly Alifirov from Kazakhstan. It is indeterminate, a heavy yielder, and the fruits are smooth, round beefsteaks of a greenish-brown color with a red blush when sliced, weighing up to 500 g (1.1 lbs).
This is one of the most delicious varieties in my garden for the second year in a row, it’s going on my permanent grow list! A sweet, fruity, and very rich flavor.
Svetlana @Svetikk, what is its ripening time for you? I grew it for the first time, and it turned out to be the very last one to ripen for me. But the tomatoes were quite large.

Mid-season. It started ripening en masse right along with all my other indeterminates. Our summer lasted until the end of September, so it even managed to set some nice big fruits right at the very top of the plant—those are the ones you see on the white plate.
An absolute masterpiece in both beauty and taste, it was almost a pity to slice it! Just a firm, sweet, tomato-fruity marmalade (jelly-like flesh). Weight up to 800 g (1.7 lbs), a tricolor beefsteak (burgundy-green-copper).
