    Had a good year in terms of tasty toms, and some of the types I grew for the first time were good.

    moneymaker -new one for me, medium Tom, good flavour and not too thick skinned. Good crop too, will grown again
    yellow perfection - medium sized yellow tom, good sweet flavour and cropped well. Will grow again.
    gardeners delight- usual reliable tom
    red Cherry - good crop and tasty but pretty tiny toms.
    green grape- love this one every year, medium crop, and always tasty
    black icicle - not such a good year, smaller sized than usual and lost lots to blossom end rot through that dry weather
    sungold- less crop this year, sweet as always.
    Roma - well flavoured plum tom, decent crop from a single plant and didn’t get much blossom end rot

      Update - Santiam Sunrise have improved in flavour, they've become sweeter.

        Sweeter in storage or sweeter on the plant?

          Sweeter on the plant, I'm guessing they've improved now the temperature has dropped. I'll definitely be giving them another go next year - I rather like the fact they're open pollinated.

            Tiny Toms
            I have about 1.5 kilos of the smallest tomatoes I have ever seen. They all come from self setting plants - presumably from the yellow cherry tomatoes planted a few years ago. Some are smaller than my little finger nail but they are soooooooooooo incredibly sweet - a real concentrated flavour
