Pomodoro del Nonno di Eupilio (Italy).
Indeterminate, grew it in the greenhouse pruned to 2 stems. It is one of the best-tasting red “pouch-shaped” tomatoes I have ever grown—it probably even beat ‘Iceberg’ in taste, or is at least right on par with it.
A highly productive variety. The fruits are firm, meaty, but not dry, weighing up to 300g (10.5 oz). When they fully ripened to a slight softness, they became incredibly tasty and sweet.

Pomodoro del Nonno di Eupilio.
Good taste. It is not an early variety, more of a mid-late one. Grown in a greenhouse. It turned out to be very productive for me. It also ripens perfectly off the vine indoors.
Seeds were from Yulia. Thank you!
