The influence of long-term storage in cold storage conditions on the quality of eight carrot cultivars was investigated. Cultivars chosen for the experiment were Cesaro, Jaguar, Nelix, Perfekcja, Recoleta, Sirus, Teldino and Nebula. The quality was determined in freshly harvested carrots and carrots stored for 8 months. The following were determined: weight losses, percentage of carrots with disease symptoms, dry matter content, sugar content, nitrate and nitrite content and sensory quality. Sensory quality was evaluated by an expert panel using quantitative descriptive analysis. Of the investigated carrot cultivars, the lowest storage losses was shown by Teldino, in terms of weight losses, and by Perfekcja, in terms of rotting. Storage resulted in changing the content of dry matter, decreasing sugar content but it did not affect nitrate content. The influence of storage on the sensory quality was significant in the case of firmness, juiciness, bitter taste intensity and, for some cultivars, also sweet taste intensity
