The ‘Indigo Kumquat’ cherry tomato is a unique variety that produces small, elongated golden-orange fruits with dark purple to black shoulders when exposed to the sun. This unique coloration is due to the presence of anthocyanins.
The fruits offer a very sweet and fruity flavor with a slight acidity, reminiscent of some citrus notes. The plant is vigorous, indeterminate, and very productive, producing many clusters throughout the season.
