St Pierre Tomato

Started indoors, the St. Pierre tomato plants were hearty & lush. The tomatoes were all small, to medium sized and the taste is delicious. Definitely, one of the best tasting tomatoes, I've ever eaten. No bitterness, slightly sweet. Quite meaty but with a bit of juice. Despite being "French canning tomatoes', they're delicious sliced. Nice for 1 sandwich without having huge, cut-tomatoes to store. Also ate the green ones, fried. Very good. Will be growing the St Pierre tomatoes again.

I started trying different tomatoes here in western Oregon about 20 years ago, moving from the "tried and true" favorites plus Oregon Spring and Willamette (which were not consistent in quality each year) to lots of varieties from Baker and Totally Tomatoes. I figured since every summer is different, having different kinds would mean we always at least get a few good tomatoes! Anyway, I tried Tappy and St. Pierre this year for salad tomatoes, and while we do like Tappy, it didn't like the early rains we got recently and the fruit is falling off the vines before they are ripe. St. Pierre not only has more flavor than Tappy, we're also seeing it "hang in there" for the weird weather events and producing like crazy with no splitting or early falls. The plants are huge as well. PS our favorite sauce tomato is still Anna's Russian, even though she splits like crazy, you can't grow a more flavorful sauce tomato in this climate.

Very good cropper, great taste and very good to use in salads. I will grow again.

I really love these tomatoes. They are easy to grow, and they have a good acidity. Be prepared to support your plants as they are really productive. Three plants yielded so many tomatoes that I'm struggling to eat/process them all.

Really nice tomato! I plan to grow this one again. Pretty, good sized, abundant fruit with great flavor. I've eaten them out of hand, and made soup and sauces with them and never did they disappoint.
