Tomatoes Raf

These are very special tomatoes. They are a relatively new variety of winter tomato, the Raf is heavily ridged and brushed with green at the top. Crisp and fragrant, lightly tart, it grows in the salty, sandy soil along the Southern Spanish coast. The plants are watered with sea water to enhance the flavour of the tomatoes, which turn out intensely sweet yet with a distinct salty, sharp bite. They are difficult to source but we have been lucky enough to get some.
