Kostyn Red Garlic – Hardneck Marbled Purple Stripe

Originating from Russia and closely related to the well-known Russian Red, Kostyn Red Garlic is a bold, flavorful variety prized for its intensity and reliability.

✨ Flavor Profile:
With an intense, long-lasting heat that rates a solid 5 out of 5, Kostyn Red is perfect for garlic lovers who crave the strongest punch of flavor. Ideal for hearty dishes, roasts, marinades, or anywhere you want garlic to truly stand out.

✨ Bulb Characteristics:

• Large bulbs with fewer, but big, plump cloves (typically 6 per bulb)

• Attractive white skins streaked with purple

• Cloves wrapped in brownish-purple skins that are easy to peel

• Bold appearance that looks as good as it tastes

✨ Growing Qualities:
Kostyn Red is a highly reliable producer, particularly well-suited to Canadian climates. Unlike some of its relatives, it thrives even in less-than-ideal conditions, such as wetter springs and summers. Though it adapts to many soil types, it performs best in loose, sandy soil, producing consistently large, uniform bulbs.

✨ Storage:
When stored properly in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area, Kostyn Red garlic maintains its quality for up to 8 months, giving you bold flavor well into the year.

✨ Our Promise:
Organically grown in our garden, with no chemicals or pesticides—pure, natural, and full of flavor.
