Allium (Garlic) Music

This cultivar was named after Canadian garlic grower Al Music, who brought it from Italy in the 1980s. High-yielding, robust plants produce very large bulbs with exceptional cold tolerance. Skins are white with a pink blush and contain 4–6 big, easy-to-peel cloves wrapped in bronze to pink-striped wrappers. Raw flavor has quite a bit of heat, but Cook's Illustrated also described it as "fragrant, floral, deep round garlic flavor, peppery, and sweet." Rich and sweet when baked.
