Romanian Red Garlic – Certified Organic

Bold. Spicy. Unforgettable.

Looking for garlic that really brings the heat? Romanian Red delivers a fiery first bite, followed by a rich, nutty complexity that lingers on the palate. Known for its distinct aroma, easy-to-peel cloves, and high allicin content, this variety is a favorite among both chefs and herbalists. It’s no wonder Romanian Red is one of the most popular hardnecks around.

This heirloom garlic is as pungent as it is flavorful; perfect for barbecue sauces, pickles, relishes, and spice-forward cooking. It shines in bold dishes, pairs beautifully with ginger in hot Asian cuisine, and holds its own against rich meats and strong spices.

Shipping Information:

All garlic ships via USPS Priority Mail. Local pickup is not available. Because garlic is harvested and cured over several weeks, we’re unable to schedule exact pickup dates. And as the fall season ramps up, our crew shifts into essential fieldwork with a leaner team.

Orders will begin shipping the week of September 22.

Thanks for your patience as we focus on sending out strong, healthy bulbs; cleaned, trimmed, and shipped with care.

Note on Yellow Aster Phytoplasma:

We do our best to identify and cull bulbs that may show signs of yellow aster phytoplasma; a disease that can cause distorted or weak garlic growth. That said, early symptoms can be subtle, and final determination isn’t always possible at harvest.

We appreciate your understanding as we work to provide the healthiest seed stock possible.
