Winter garlic "AMISH"

Allium sativum var ophioscorodon subvar rocambole

Amish is an old, traditional hardneck winter garlic variety that comes from the Amish communities in America, where it has been grown for centuries without chemicals and selection pressure. The variety is famous for its especially rich flavor, large cloves and high resistance to cold.

The bulbs are large, with a white-purple skin, and each clove is big, firm, and juicy. The taste is deeply sharp, spicy, ideally suited for meat dishes, marinades, fermentation, and cooking where a strong garlic note is needed.

Amish garlic is especially well suited for winter planting, as it overwinters excellently and forms strong roots even in harsh climates.

History

Amish garlic variety originated from Amish communities in the USA, where it has been grown for centuries as a reliable, hardy, and easy-to-care-for variety. It was introduced to Europe and other parts of the world at the end of the 20th century, when interest in traditional and ancient agricultural crops increased. Amish garlic has been preserved and propagated without modern breeding methods, passed down from generation to generation as part of the community's self-sufficiency and natural farming traditions. Today, this variety is valued for its consistent quality, good taste, and durability.
