Strongest flavour. Purple stripe variety that produces large bulbs when planted in good soil with high fertility and moisture. Not surprisingly, this is probably the most powerful garlic for use in herbal medicine due to its high allicin and alliinase contents (the compounds responsible for garlic's health benefits). Great for herbal remedies as well as baking (rich and sweet flavor), in stews or raw. Best tasting baking garlic. Medium heat. (6-8 months storage)
