The Sart Roloise tomato is a stunning variety known for its vibrant, stained-glass-like appearance and exceptional flavor. Developed by Belgian breeder Roland Boulanger from Sart Eustache, Belgium, this large beefsteak-type tomato averages 10–20 ounces per fruit. It is a cross between the 'White Wonder' and 'Baby Blue' tomatoes, resulting in fruits with deep indigo blue shoulders and a tropical, sweet, and fruity flavor profile with balanced acidity.
