Cloves per bulb: 9-10

Chesnok is Russian for garlic, and 'Chesnok Red' is also known as 'Shvelisi,' which refers to its origin near Shvelisi in the former Republic of Georgia. This heirloom cultivar has bright purple streaks and blotches on the bulbs and contains 9–10 easy-to-peel cloves, also with purple-striped skins. Its robust flavor and buttery texture hold up well during cooking, and it is well-rated for baking or roasting. Stores 4 to 6 months.

Due to state restrictions, we cannot ship garlic to Idaho, Hawaii, and the following counties in Washington—Adams, Benton, Franklin, Grant, and Klickitat (including cities such as Othello, Pasco, Moses Lake, Kennewick, and Richland). Please do not order garlic if you live in one of these locations.
