organic Hiiros^™

A variety originally bred for the Japanese market, which views exceptional produce as a gift of honor, our organic Hiiros™ tomatoes are grown from the finest seeds.

Organic Hiiros™ offer a rich umami flavor with a distinguishing level of sweetness that adds depth and complexity of flavor that you won’t experience from any other tomato.

What exactly is umami? One of the five basic tastes – alongside salty, sweet, sour, and bitter – umami is best described as a savory or meaty flavor. Organic Hiiros™ are unique in that their umami flavor is perfectly balanced with a sweetness typically tasted in a cherry or grape tomato.

When we first saw this tomato variety, we knew its deep red color was an important part of its story. That’s why we named the product Hiiros™: The Japanese translation of Scarlet Red. The name is a perfect homage to this tomato’s origin story as well as an authentic way to describe its rich red coloring. Another eye-catching element of our organic Hiiros™ is its deep green vine and calyx (the star-looking leaf found on top).

Whether a healthy snack or a fresh ingredient for tonight’s dinner, organic Hiiros™ tomatoes will get your taste buds soaring.
