Ail Rose de Lautrec - France's finest garlic with pink cloves and white skin on the exterior for sale at the market of Issigeac. It is grown in the medieval town of Lautrec in the Tarn region. According to an old tale, a traveller with no money stopped in Lautrec in order to eat, but as he had no money, he paid with pink cloves of garlic instead.
