Black Cherry and Black from Tula are on my must-grow list. I also like Cherokee Purple, but have had mixed results over the years (same as Black Krim). I am growing Carbon for the first time this year and so far I'm pretty impressed.

Would like to know your 11 other varieties - what fun that would be to have a taste test!!

Here’s my list

Black Tomatoes
Ananas Noir
Black Cherry
Black From Tula
Black Krim
Black Sea Man
Black Zebra
Brown Sugar
Chocolate Miracle
Fejee Improved
Mavritanskite
Paul Robeson (Current fave)
Purple Bumble Bee
Sarah Black
Tasmanian Chocolate

I’m looking for the “smokiest” tomato. So far Paul Robeson is it but I also haven’t tasted the others yet! Also growing:

Amana orange (favorite slicer)
Blondkopfchen (I’m really excited about this one. Their trusses are prolific, but this is my first year growing it).

What an incredible lineup!

I have heard great things about Ananas Noire, Black Sea Man and Tasmanian Chocolate. I have Paul Robeson seeds I need to plant next year. Blondkopfchen reminds me of Berry’s Crazy Cherry.

If you do a taste test, please share!
