Summer Sun

Summer Sun

Israel's Hazera Genetics has developed a new breed of tomato which it says “has the taste and colour of honey”. The new fruit has been named Summer Sun and is a medium-sized, pale-yellow, cherry tomato with a high sugar content of 10°Brix compared with 2.5°Brix in most other varieties.

Summer Sun is part of the new Hazera Boutique range of gourmet tomatoes differing from each other in size and shape, but all having the same unique taste and high sugar content although they can be picked either individually or on the vine.

Hazera Genetics develops and breeds hybrid seeds for glasshouse and field-vegetable crops and has become well-known during its 65-year history for the progression of disease-resistant and long-life varieties.
