10+ Organically Grown Seeds — Morado de Aretxabaleta (Borracho de Aretxabaleta)
An iconic heirloom from the Basque Country of Spain, Morado de Aretxabaleta—also known as Morado de Araxtabaleta, Aretxabaletako Moskorra, and Borracho de Aretxabaleta—is one of the region’s most beloved traditional tomatoes. Originating from the village of Aretxabaleta, this variety embodies the deep agricultural heritage and flavor of northern Spain.
The indeterminate plants produce slightly flattened, pinkish-purple fruits with yellow-green shoulders and softly ribbed tops, each weighing 7–10 oz (200–300 g), sometimes more. The flesh is dense, juicy, and richly flavored, offering that old-fashioned tomato taste—balanced, full-bodied, and unforgettable.
Reliable and productive, Morado de Aretxabaleta captures the essence of Basque gardens and the pride of regional heirloom preservation.
