Organic Yellow Datterini Tomatoes

For the sweetest, sunniest fresh tomato flavor, there’s nothing better than these organic yellow datterini from Bio Orto. The name means “little dates,” and they’re so called both for their diminutive size and their candylike sweetness. Grown in Foggia, in the southern region of Puglia, datterini thrive in the intense heat (the region gets, on average, 2,500 hours of sun a year!), which is tempered by cool breezes from the surrounding Mediterranean Sea. Their natural sugars are concentrated by those long hours in the sun, giving these tomatoes a well-balanced flavor profile that sings with ripe sweetness. Yellow datterini have the highest sugar content of all, with minimal acidity. They make a sunny addition to pizzas, salads, and composed pastas. When cherry tomatoes disappoint, these datterini deliver!

Launched in 2003 by third-generation farmers from the Passalacqua family, Bio Orto is dedicated to capturing the freshest Italian produce and sharing it with the world. A leader in organic agriculture, they grow their produce in the valleys of Gargano National Park in Puglia, on the southeastern edge of the country. This pristine landscape is the perfect home for a company dedicated to celebrating agricultural diversity while working to be better stewards of the land for future generations. From their olive oils to fruit preserves, tomatoes, sauces, and more, every ingredient is hand-picked and packed in their state-of-the-art facilities to ensure you get the best of what Italy has to offer.
